Plot
On their way to their new home, a young girl, Chihiro, and her parents stumble into what appears to be an abandoned theme park. But it is not all as it seems, as the theme park is a bath-house for the spirits, and not a place where humans are welcome. Chihiro must fend for herself and rescue her parents, as they have been turned to pigs as punishment for eating the food meant for the gods.
