Spirited Away

Hayao Miyazaki's Spirited Away is one of Studio Ghibli's best. 10-year-old Chihiro and her parents visit an abandoned amusement park, only for the latter to be transformed into humongous pigs. Chihiro is forced to work at the park—which is really a resort for supernatural beings—in order to free herself and her parents from its confines.
