Laputa: Castle in the Sky (1986)Tenkû no shiro Rapyuta
Orphan Pazu's life is changed when one day the beautiful Sheeta literally falls out of the sky.

Caught up in a race between sky pirates and sinister government agents, Pazu and Sheeta go in search of Laputa, the last of the fabled castles in the sky. Hayao Miyazaki's homage to Jules Verne and Jonathan Swift, Castle in the Sky was the first feature film from the now legendary Studio Ghibli.
