Nausicaa- 2nd week

The second viewing of Nausicaa made me think that this movie is all about nature and humans and their interaction. If the humans are good to the nature, the nature will be good to them. In the movie, Nausicaa discovers that the poison forest is just poisonous because the humans are polluting the water and then the trees use the polluted water to grow. If the humans weren’t polluting the water with their new technologies and inventions, the forest wouldn’t be poisonous. The movie also tells us that there is always another chance to make things better. Nausicaa kills some people in the movie but then in the end she is redeemed when she shows unselfishness in saving the little Ohmu and her village. Even though she had killed those people in the end she made it better. I think that Miyazaki wanted to show the viewers that we could always make things better if we want and try.
