Set in 1930s Italy, the film follows a former World War I pilot who lives as a cynical bounty hunter and pilot after a mysterious curse transforms him into a pig.
Hayao Miyazaki directed this 1992 animation, which remains one of his most personal and reflective works.
The film did not receive an Oscar, but it is a widely praised entry in the Studio Ghibli catalog for its animation and thematic depth.
