Desperate to survive, the tanuki band together and learn the ancient art of transformation, shape-shifting into a comical variety of humans and spirits as they undertake a last-ditch plan to scare away the humans and save their home in this deeply-affecting, funny and heartfelt look at what it means to live in the modern world.

The mysterious young princess enthralls all who encounter her – but ultimately she must confront her fate, the punishment for her crime.
