'Scarlet' is the new story from Japanese director Mamoru Hosoda. The filmmaker is known for other animated titles such as 'Summer Wars', 'Wolf Children', and 'The Girl Who Leapt Through Time'. 'Scarlet' brings us the princess who bears this name, a medieval warrior skilled in swordsmanship, who wishes to avenge her father's death. To do this, she must embark on a complex and dangerous mission, during which she is injured in an "Otherworld." In this strange place, she meets a young idealist from the present world who helps her in her healing and also teaches her about a possible future, free from bitterness and rage. However, the princess must face the assassin of her father again in what will be her toughest battle. After this confrontation, will Scarlet be able to move away from hatred and revenge and find another meaning in life?
