Main Description
Ten-year-old Chihiro and her family are moving to a new city when they stop to explore an abandoned amusement park. The place isn't as empty as they first believed however. Chihiro meets a mysterious boy that warns her to leave the place before nightfall. With the sun setting, Chihiro runs to find her parents only to discover that they've turned into pigs. She turns to flee but finds that water has surrounded the park and a boat has brought many strange creatures to the newly made island. The creatures head towards a bathhouse and Chihiro eventually finds herself there as well.
The bathhouse is owned by Yubaba, an elderly witch that controls her servants by stealing their names and memories. Chihiro's name is stolen as well and she begins to work at bathhouse. With the help of some other servants, Chihiro attempts to recover her name so that she may free herself and her parents.

Night Gaunt
It's a beautiful movie and every scene is magical. Chihiro is an endearing and very realistic main character. It might be too scary for very small children though.
