Description:
Embark on a wonderous, warmhearted journey into the delightfully animated world of the magical creature called Totoro. What is a Totoro? It's big as a blimp. Soft as a kitten. Invisible to grown-ups. And perfect for a child's best friend.
From master animator Hayao Miyazaki, MY NEIGHBOR TOTORO is a remarkable animated achievement applauded by Roger Ebert as "A wonderful movie...a real treasure..." and praised by The New York Times as "a garden of Earthly delights..."
The adventure begins when a young family moves into a rambling old house deep in a countryside of tidy farms and mysterious forests. While investigating an ancient grove of towering trees, the youngest daughter, Mei, comes face to face with the mythical woodland creature known as a Totoro: huge, fuzzy and able to fly about unnoticed by adults.
Mei introduces her older sister, Satsuki, to the good-natured Totoro, and soon the two sisters are off on one incredible journey after another with their newfound friend, flying high into the moonlit sky or boarding a ten-legged "cat-bus" for a rollicking, rapid-transit trip across the fields and forests.
But when the girls get troubling news about their hospitalized mother, Mei runs away on a perilous quest to find her beloved mom, creating a crisis that plunges the entire countryside into an uproar! Now, only one thing can save little Mei and reunite her with her family: the magical, mystical power of the Totoro!
Sparkling with exhilarating animation and irresistible storytelling enchantment, MY NEIGHBOR TOTORO is a whimsical, uniquely entertaining fantasy treat certain to capture the imagination of children and adults alike!
