original
She is born from inside a bamboo tree, soon grows up to become a beautiful daughter, turns down suitors for her marriage one by one until, on the night of the full moon, she leaves to go to the moon with the messenger sent for her.

This is the outline of the story "Taketori Monogatari" (The Tale of the Bamboo-Cutter). If it were a movie, how would it unfold? Probably it would be advertised as "The crime the princess committed, and her punishment", which has a strange feel to it.

Out of all the stars, why did Princess Kaguya choose to come to earth? What was she thinking while on earth? Why did she have to go to the moon? Exactly what was the crime that she was guilty of? What was her punishment? This movie would reveal the answers to these many unclear questions from the original story.
