English Summary:

Castle in the Sky (Japanese: 天空の城ラピュタ, Hepburn: Tenkū no Shiro Rapyuta), known as Laputa: Castle in the Sky in Europe and Australia, is a 1986 Japanese animated fantasy-adventure film written and directed by Hayao Miyazaki.[1][2] It was the first film animated by Studio Ghibli and was animated for Tokuma Shoten. It follows the adventures of a young boy and girl in the late 19th century attempting to keep a magic crystal from a group of military agents, while searching for a legendary floating castle. The film was distributed by Toei Company.

An airship carrying Sheeta, a young orphan girl who has been abducted by government agent Muska, is attacked by Captain Dola and her air pirate sons who are in search of Sheeta's small blue crystal pendant. In the resulting struggle, Sheeta falls from the airship but her descent is slowed by a mysterious power within the amulet. She safely lands in a small mining town where she is discovered by a brave young orphan boy named Pazu, who takes her into his home to recover. Pazu tells her of a mysterious floating island named Laputa which is visible in a picture taken by his father. Later, they are pursued by Dola's pirates, and then by Muska's soldiers. Eventually, the two fall into an abandoned mine, where they encounter the local eccentric Uncle Pomme, who informs them that Sheeta's amulet is made of 'volucite' crystal ('Aetherium' in the American release), a material used to keep Laputa and the other flying cities aloft.

 

Japanese Summary:

監督である宮崎の小学校時代に考えていた架空の作品が骨子となっており、原作となる作品が存在しない初のアニメオリジナルの監督作品である。製作は徳間書店。高畑勲の映画『柳川堀割物語』の製作遅延により資金調達に追われた宮崎が、徳間書店の鈴木敏夫に相談したことから企画が立ち上げられ、この映画をきっかけに設立されたスタジオジブリ制作映画の1作品目となった。次第に高年齢向けになっていくアニメに対して、マンガ映画の復活を目標に小学生を対象に古典的な冒険活劇として企画され、それが結果的に大人の鑑賞に耐えうる作品になるというのが宮崎の方針であった。音楽は冒険活劇ということから宇崎竜童に決定していたが、プロデューサーの高畑勲の再考により『風の谷のナウシカ』の久石譲が続投することになった。興行こそ数字的には振るわなかったものの(後述)、配給した東映による観客満足度調査は97.7%と高く[5]、物語は幅広い年齢層に支持され、ビデオソフト化による販売は好調であった。

「ラピュタ」という名称は、スウィフトの『ガリヴァー旅行記』に登場する、空を飛ぶ島にある王国「ラピュタ王国(en:Laputa)」からとったもの。劇中に空飛ぶ島の物語を空想した人物としてスウィフトの名前も出てくるが、名前の借用以外は『ガリヴァー旅行記』との関連はない。19世紀後半、産業革命期のヨーロッパを元にした架空世界での冒険を描く。

 

Hungarian Summary:

Pazu, egy aprócska bányászfalu árvája, arról ábrándozik, hogy a saját szemével láthassa azt a mitikus égi palotát, amelyről anno elhunyt édesapja készített fotót egy repülés alkalmával. Nem is sejti, hogy az égből aláhulló, rejtélyes medált viselő kislánnyal (Sheeta) karöltve lehetősége nyílik beteljesítenie az álmát. Nyomukba ered viszont a lebegő sziget kincseire áhítozó kalózbanda és Muska, a katonaság támogatását élvező, hatalomra éhes titkosügynök, aki rámutat Sheeta valódi származására. Felfedi, hogy a lány nyakában hordott varázserejű ékkő jelenti Laputa ősi civilizációjának a kulcsát. Vajon a gyermeki erő szövetségének sikerül megmentenie a felhőbe burkolózó minibirodalmat?
