Synopsis

An enchanting fairytale and surreal fable, this animated feature has enthralled both adults and children in their millions all around the world. 10-year old Chihiro, capricious and headstrong, believing the world should revolve around her, stumbles with her parents into the Land of the Spirits, a world of ancient gods and magical beings ruled over by the demonic sorceress Yubaba. With the help of the enigmatic young Haku, she learns both what to renounce and how to survive. A visionary work and an adventure unlike any other.

Critics

open_quote It had me utterly involved from the very start...mind-bogglingly superb animation... It's fast and funny; it's weird and wonderful. Mostly wonderful close_quote Peter Bradshaw, The Guardian
