Spirited Away
PG
Why watch?
“It remains my favourite Studio Ghibli film (although My Neighbour Totoro is close behind). Like all of Miyazaki's films, it has a strong anti-capitalist theme and is about how greed has affected our relationship with nature. It's a perfect film and like all good films that are primarily aimed at kids it doesn't sugarcoat anything or talk down to them.”

Sirocco and the Kingdom of Winds
Chihiro’s family is moving to a new house, but when they stop on the way to explore an abandoned village, her parents undergo a mysterious transformation and Chihiro is whisked into a world of fantastic spirits ruled over by the sorceress Yubaba.
Put to work in a magical bathhouse for spirits and demons, Chihiro must use all her wits to survive in this strange new place, find a way to free her parents and return to the normal world.
Overflowing with imaginative creatures and thrilling storytelling, Spirited Away became a worldwide smash hit, and is one of the most critically-acclaimed films of all time.
