During her family's move to the suburbs, a sullen 10-year-old girl wanders into a world ruled by gods, witches and spirits, and where humans are changed into beasts.
Spirited Away | 2001 | PG | Dir. Hayao Miyazaki | Japan/US | 124 mins | IMDb 8.6 | Anime
Chihiro, a ten-year-old girl, and her parents are travelling to their new home when they come across a potential shortcut which eventually leads them to an abandoned resort town. Chihiro is reluctant to explore but her mother insists, and they all soon find themselves in a world of trouble. With her parents now transformed into pigs and with her original path home rendered unusable, our protagonist sets her eyes on the bathhouse where’s she’s been told to seek employment. A world of whimsy awaits with many a strange character waiting within its walls.
From the brilliant mind of Hayao Miyazaki (My Neighbour Totoro) and the team at Studio Ghibli, Spirited Away is a journey of self-discovery and an exploration of all the facets of the mind which are at full throttle during a transitional period such as the one depicted here. Painstakingly hand animated and injected with a full spectrum of colours and a beautiful score, the film speaks true to many and has become a childhood classic full of wonderful and magic.
