Amazon has released a new trailer for its anime series Roja, The Robber’s Daughter, which is developed by the legendary Studio Ghibli. The animated series is based on the children’s fantasy novel written by Astrid Lindgren, who also wrote Pippi Longstocking.

The X-Files’ Gillian Anderson is narrating this series, and Gorō Miyazaki (Up on Poppy Hill, Tales from Earthsea) is directing it. The show tells the story of a thief’s 10-year-old daughter named Ronja, described as a strong and spirited girl. “Driven by her thirst for adventure, she comes face-to-face with wondrous creatures who inhabit the forest and finds a most unlikely friend – the son of her father’s rival.”

Watch the trailer below:

Synopsis:

When talking about Ronja, Hayao Miyazaki said, “With Ronja, the Robber’s Daughter, Astrid Lindgren seems to be telling children to believe in their own power to grow, whilst telling adults to learn more from children. Mutual respect will attain freedom in the true sense of the word.”

The series will premiere on Prime Video on January 27.
