Spirited Away is a 2001 Japanese animated film written and directed by Hayao Miyazaki and produced by Studio Ghibli. The film views a sullen ten-year-old girl in the middle of her family's move to a new town (presumably the countryside) and her adventures in a world of spirits and monsters.

The film received many awards, including the second Oscar ever awarded for Best Anmated Feature, the film also won the Golden Bear at the 2002 Berlin International Film Festival and is among the top ten in the BFI List of the 50 films you should see by the ge of 14.

Spirited Away overtook Titanic in the Japanese box office to become the highest-grossing film in Japanese history.

The audience would be Japanese viewers with a sense of fantasy and about what resides in the spirit world, Japanese are big on spirits and monsters.
The important history of this animation is that it became the highest grossing picture in Japanese history.
The technique being used is unlike any of the others that Hayao Miyazaki had made, this one had realistic presision and traditional drawings.
The technology being used is the same as the first Japanese film, except for it has realistic 2-D presision.
