Magi Lune: [opening narration] Our world was much larger then. The forest went on forever. We tree spirits nurtured the harmony of all living things, but our closest friends were humans.

A little known movie with a super start cast, how has this movie always flown under the radar? As an environmentally focused 80s kid this movie spoke to me in so many ways and as an adult I have realised it really was a trailblazer in environmental advocacy movies!! Totally pop it on for the kids, it doesn't feel like a dated movie and you gotta love the message behind the story!
