My Neighbour Totoro + Spirited Away (Aug 12)

MY NEIGHBOUR TOTORO follows two young girls, Satsuki and Mei, who have moved with their father into a new home in the country, while their mother recovers from illness in a nearby hospital. To their surprise, they soon discover that they share this home with some rather unusual creatures and even stranger neighbours - forest guardians that the girls dub Totoro. When trouble occurs, their new friends will help them rediscover hope.

On a journey to their new home, a Japanese family takes an unintended detour to a world ruled by gods, witches and spirits in SPIRITED AWAY. Separated from her parents, young Chihiro takes a job in a bathhouse before teaming-up with a mysterious boy named Haku in an attempt to return to her realm. The first international feature to win the Best Animated Feature Oscar, SPIRITED AWAY is a hugely influential masterpiece from legendary director Hayao Miyazaki.
