 Cinnamon Ass » Princess Arete
Arete has been kept locked in the tower of the castle where she lives for years, a pawn of her father’s advisors who send suitors to fetch magical treasures to swell the kingdom’s coffers.
Arete is a great heroine, despite a frustrating half an hour of being a catatonic vegetable, and despite the almost total lack of action the film is always interesting and vibrant.
Arete is not for everyone, it really is incredibly slow and could be accused of being boring, but if you stick with it I think you’ll be rewarded by an under-appreciated gem that certainly ranks with Ghibli in my books.

This training in Arete included; physical training, where the Greeks developed the "gymnasion" for this purpose; mental training which included oratory, rhetoric and basic sciences; spiritual training which included music and what is called virtue.
