Join POST as we screen Studio Ghibli’s Princess Mononoke in Theatre on Sunday, March 19, doors open at 6 PM. Set in 14th Century Japan, Princess Mononoke is a beloved film that follows a young tribal warrior named Ashitaka, who stumbles into a bitter war in which a girl raised by wolves defends her forest home against the people of Iron Town, who have entered into conflict with the spirits of nature by cutting down a forest to dig their mines.
