Plot

Ten-year-old Chihiro, moving to a new town with her parents, wanders into an abandoned theme park, where her parents turn into pigs. She finds herself in a world of spirits and gods, and takes a job in a bathhouse run by the witch Yubaba, to free them, helped by the boy Haku. Hayao Miyazaki's 2001 animation won the Academy Award for Best Animated Feature.

Sinekatalog’s take

Miyazaki sends a sulky child into a bathhouse for spirits, and the film unfolds like a dream with its own logic. Inventive, beautifully drawn and quietly about growing up. Suited to all ages.Sinekatalog’s own editorial review – not a user or critic quote.
