Nausicaa of the Valley of the Wind is a Japanese animation film made in 1984 and directed by anime god Hayao Miyazaki. It tells the story of a girl named Nausicaa, who wants to bring peace to the now toxic and corrupted world. One thousand years ago, giant warriors were created. They burned the city of Pejite (and pretty much the whole world) for seven days, and then soon after that, they turned to stone. The toxic jungle now spreads, threatening the last of the human race. Nausicaa was the founding movie of Studio Ghibli.
Nausicaa of the Valley of the Wind is an amazing, emotional, inspiring movie that I love watching. I grew up with it, and just recently started eating Nutella while watching it. Amazing combo. Except for the end. That's a bit gruesome.
