The content of the film revolves around the story of the forest god Totoro and two sisters Satsuki and Mei. Two sisters and their families moved to a house in a remote suburb that was rumored to be haunted. Here, two children met Totoro - a huge mascot who wrote their peaceful and laughter-filled childhood.
My Neighbor Totoro recreates a realistic picture of Japan in 1958 when the country was still poor. Since then, family love and traditional Japanese culture have been portrayed more prominently than ever. By integrating many close and familiar images from childhood, the film has become one of Studio Ghibli's most classic works.
