Spirited Away (aka Sen to chihiro no kamikakushi) (2002)
A remarkable fantasy adventure film quite unlike any other. Spirited Away tells the story of Chihiro, a headstrong 10-year-old girl, unhappy that her family are moving house and that she will have to make new friends.
As they make their way to the new home, Chihiro's father takes a detour to explore a mysterious tunnel in the woods. In the other side is what seems to be a deserted theme park but is in fact a ghostly town. Unwittingly, they have strayed into the Land of the Spirits, a world of dreamlike scenery inhabited by ancient gods and magical beings, ruled over by the sorceress, Yubaba. With her parents held captive and Yubaba set on enslaving them forever, Chihiro must use all her energy to survive in this strange new place. With the help of Haku, a brave young spirit, she is forced to overcome her fears and join an epic battle for her family's freedom.

Finest film ever
This film is undoubted one of the finest I have ever seen. A beautiful animated film that makes you feel like you are five years old listening to a bedtime story.
