SPIRITED AWAY

Spirited Away.. production of Hayao Miyazaki. This is a story about a 10 year old girl, Chihiro who was heading to her new house with her parents. She wasn't so fond of it and she missed her old home. Along the way, her parents pointed their new house at the corner of a hill. Beside their house, there's this huge forest.

Apparently, her father took a short cut which leads to the forest. They saw those small little houses made for the gods and they were kind of scary. Eventually, they reached a dead end and they stopped in front of a red building(spooky). They all got out from the car and headed into the tunnel like passage. Soon they found themselves walking in a town full of yummy food but there wasn't anyone around, not even one person.

Chihiro's father was hungry so he helped himself with the food and her mother followed. She warned her parents not to do so but they just wouldn't listen. She sighed and went to explore the quiet town. She walked to a huge red building. And she noticed that there's smoke coming out from it and she heard the sound of a moving train. There's definitely somebody staying here she thought. She looked down at the bridge and she did see a train. When she turned, a boy was standing in front of her. He was around her age and he urged her to leave immediately.

The sky was getting darker and she rushed back to her parents. And the worst part was that her parents were turned into big FAT pigs and these shadowy images were walking here and there. They were like spirits and they were having their own business. Chihiro was really frightened and she ran away heading to the place they where they first came from.

But it was too late. That red building seemed too far and a river appeared out of nowhere. She couldn't go back. In front of her, came a ferry and spirits with all shapes and sizes came out from it. She got even frightened and ran away from them. Chihiro was hiding at a corner and trying to calm herself down. It all seemed complicated to her when she's trap in a world she barely knows.

That boy she met at the bridge came to her side and asked her to swallow a pill. She did what she was asked and her whole body wasn't translucent anymore. This was due to not eating the food in that world. The boy brought her back to that red building where they met and she is required to hold her breath until she leaves the bridge.
