Castle in the Sky
天空の城ラピュタ
Cette aventure dans les airs commence lorsque Pazu, un apprenti mécanicien, trouve une jeune fille, Sheeta, qui descend du ciel portant un pendentif lumineux. Ensemble, ils découvrent qu'ils cherchent tous deux un château flottant légendaire, Laputa, et s'engagent à percer le mystère du cristal brillant autour du cou de Sheeta. Mais leur quête ne sera pas facile. Pirates de l'air cupides, agents secrets du gouvernement et obstacles stupéfiants les empêchent d'atteindre la vérité, et l'un l'autre. (Source: Disney)
