Movie Story

Heroic Epic of Self-Salvation

Masterpiece of Re-examining Human Vitality

Exploring the strength and reason of the world's living in the confrontation between man and nature

There is an unimaginable fantasy at the other end of the tunnel, and all the impossible things are taken for granted by this town, which lives next to the human world. Because there are hot springs that cure all diseases, there are countless immortals and elves gathered in the dreamland.

Chihiro, a lost 1-year-old girl, accidentally fell into this forbidden area for human beings. In order to survive in the dreamland, Chihiro was changed to Qian by the witch Tang Popo, completely divorced from the life of the human world; She also became a worker under Tang Popo, working in the hot spring baths controlled by this bossy witch. Chihiro got the courage to survive from the encouragement of Grandpa Kettle, Sister Bell and the mysterious and beautiful boy Xiaobai, and worked hard in the hot springs to avoid becoming an animal. Gradually, the "vitality" that had been silent for a long time in her body was awakened by the cold life. It turned out that people could actually feel that they were alive, and Chihiro had such an experience for the first time.

There is a masked man named "Wu Yan" in the hot spring. All he can do all day is mutter the words "cold", "I want it all, I have money, bring it" and "Qian, hungry". He is grumpy and rude, and loses the ability to communicate with others. Chihiro, bent on living, realized the beauty of life. She didn't want to have the same fate as Yan Yan, so she tried to find a way to liberate Yan Yan's soul. At the same time, Xiao Bai, who once protected her, stabbed Qian Niang, the daughter of Tang Popo, and Chihiro resolutely decided to save Xiao Bai and challenge the authority of the witch.

synopsis of the story

Chihiro is a skinny ten-year-old girl. Spirited Away's story begins with her. Chihiro moved from this city to another city with his parents, and a wonderful journey took place on the way.

The first scene of the film is Chihiro's eyes open, cold and numb. Maybe she has lost the innocence and curiosity that children should have. Look at the strange things outside the window and fly by bit by bit, leaving no trace.

They are driving in a strange place, so it is normal for them to go the wrong way. It's just that they didn't expect that they would accidentally break into the place where ghosts and gods rest. After they passed through the mysterious tunnel, they saw a blue sky, lush grass and fresh wind. This seems to be a rare place in society now. Strangely, the streets of the empty town are lined with delicious food. Chihiro's parents couldn't resist the temptation of food and didn't care that the owner of the food was not here. Eat with food. Chihiro couldn't stop her parents' actions, which made her uneasy. She had to walk and wander in an empty street.

Suddenly, she saw the White Dragon, another indispensable master. He yelled at Chihiro and told her to leave here quickly.

At this time, as night falls, the light in the big house behind Bailong lights up. Chihiro is scared by his harsh words and turns and runs to his parents. Along the way, the lights went on one by one, and if there was a shadow hanging around her, people were worried about this thin little girl, hoping that she would hurry to her parents and leave with them.

When Chihiro ran to the place where his parents were eating, as soon as the corner passed, he found that the two people sitting there were pigs in their parents' clothes. Became two pigs because of greed.

She is only ten years old, but society has already numbed her a lot. She must not believe in fairy tales. She thinks it's just an illusion. She goes back along the way she came, and finds that the way she came has somehow turned into a sea of Wang Yang. A gorgeous and brightly lit ship slowly came to this side and stopped, only to find that it was a shadow with a mask.

Chihiro was so scared, she said hurriedly and disappeared. I smiled when the DVD was put here. I thought words would be a spell in this place, and they will work as soon as they are said. Because Chihiro is gradually disappearing at this time. If the white dragon doesn't appear, Chihiro will definitely disappear. But the white dragon appeared, and he gently said to Chihiro, don't be afraid, don't be afraid, I am on your side, and you won't disappear after eating the food here.

When Tang Popo's minion, something I don't know, hovered in the sky to catch Chihiro, Bailong escaped with Chihiro, but when he had to leave, Chihiro pulled him. Bailong told her that if you want to survive here, you have to go alone. If you don't work here, you will be turned into an animal by Tang Popo.

Chihiro is afraid and doesn't want to become an animal, but she wants to save her parents more.

So, along the road that Bailong showed her, she found grandpa Wolu and asked him to give her a job. Grandpa Wolu refused, saying that he had enough hands. However, when Xiaoling, who brought the meal, saw Chihiro, he said it was his relative. When Xiaoling took her to see Tang Popo, she could see that this was a kind-hearted grandfather.

When I left grandpa Wolu, Xiaoling accused Chihiro of helping you, but you didn't even say thank you.

Before I met Tang Popo, I wanted to push the door directly without knocking. After seeing Tang Popo, you can find that she is a material woman who loves to lose her temper and is greedy for money, and pampers her children and huge babies. Sign the contract. Chihiro began to work here. And Tang Popo took away Chihiro's original name, leaving only one word: Qian.

once the name is taken away, you can't find your way home. When Bailong said this, he gave Chihiro's clothes and a piece of paper with her name written on it to her for her to keep.

Think about the proof that the name is in a world. Chihiro was forced to change her name to "Chihiro" by Tang Popo just to make her forget her name and who she is. The name has become a symbol of contact with the real world (that is, the ID) here. The name is a key point to connect her ontology with the original world. Tang Popo, the witch, took her name just to keep her, so that Chihiro could become a human form in this world and work for her all her life. People who lose their names also lose their identity and basis for survival in that world.

on a rainy day. No matter how decadent and materialistic the society is. A child is kind in nature. Watching Slender Man get wet outside, she opened a door for him to come in for shelter. Slender Man's desire for friends is no different from that of people in real society. As long as a little kindness is enough, it is enough to move people.

there is a special guest in the oil house, the local god, who seems to be a god made of sludge and stinks. When he entered the largest bath in the soup house, the clear water suddenly turned into muddy mud, but Chihiro suddenly touched something as hard as iron in his muddy body. Tie that piece of iron with a rope. Let's pull together in Qi Xin. I just didn't expect that it was human waste, bicycles, fishing lines and even dirty rags. It turns out that this is not a local god, but a river god. With a refreshing smile, he gave Chihiro a meatball and left happily.

gradually, the "vitality" that had been silent for a long time in her body was awakened by the cold life. It turned out that people could actually feel that they were alive, and Chihiro had such an experience for the first time.

I didn't expect that Slender Man, who she let in, actually swallowed the greedy frog and began to keep eating.

Chihiro faced the dragon chased by the flying piece of white paper and cried without hesitation, White Dragon, come here. She believes that it is the white dragon with a gentle side. Looking at Longfei Bai into Tang Popo's study, while his hands are full of his blood, Chihiro is anxious to go up. Slender Man stood in front of her, trying to give her more gold than her hands could hold.

The moral of "eating" in this cartoon seems to be related to greedy desire. The monster Slender Man eats more and more in the bathhouse and becomes more and more evil. When Slender Man used the changed gold to please Chihiro, Chihiro refused. She has understood that what she wants is not something gold can buy. Chihiro was still worried about Bailong. She had no time to waste here, so she ran away in a hurry. Slender Man began to feel angry and swallowed two people who felt laughing at him.

Chihiro tried to enter Tang Popo's study from the baby giant's room, but she was tugged by the baby giant's wrist, desperately pulling, willful, unreasonable and crying very much.

At this time, a phantom appeared slowly on the white piece of paper stuck behind Chihiro. Attention, everyone. At this time, Qian Popo, Tang Popo's sworn enemy and twin sister, appeared, but they all looked the same, even the rings on their hands were the same.

Qian Popo was angry, turning the baby into a fat white mouse and the servant flying in the sky into a fly. Connect three things like heads together and become a baby. Then Chihiro was asked to hand over White Dragon, because White Dragon stole Qian Popo's witch and seal of peace on orders from Tang Popo. Now the white dragon is so miserable because of the protective spell on the seal.

Chihiro gave half of the meatballs given to her by the river god to the white dragon. Suddenly, the seal was spit out, and even the black bugs on the seal were trampled to death by Chihiro.

If Chihiro saved Bailong with meatballs because of love, then giving it to Slender Man is sincere to him. Knowing that the meatballs given by the river god can save their parents, they still take them out to help those who need them. Chihiro's mind at this time is just a few strokes away.

Holding Qian Popo's seal in his hand, he is surrounded by a smaller baby and a smaller fly. Behind him is Slender Man who vomited everything in his body. Embark on the train without hesitation and seek a way to save the white dragon.

When I arrived in Qian Popo, it was not as luxurious as the oil house in Tang Popo, but quite different from simplicity. Chihiro returned the seal to her and apologized to her instead of Bailong.

finally, Chihiro finally became independent. Qian Popo told Chihiro that no matter what things, including returning to the original world with parents, saving Bailong and so on, we must rely on ourselves. This is also the rule of the game in our real life. Chihiro has been reborn, grateful, caring and thinking of doing something for others. Not the little girl who ate rice balls and shed tears helplessly.

Qian Popo said that it is impossible to forget what happened, but I just can't remember it.

Finally, Chihiro leads the team to retrieve the name memory White Dragon (this is the original name "Amber River"). In the blue sky, Yun Xiang is in a cheerful mood and has no worries.

At last, Tang Popo let them go and left town. Chihiro's parents still don't know what happened, and they completely forget the things in the town, but Chihiro still goes back thoughtfully, looks behind him, and recalls those thrilling and bizarre things not long ago ...

Some hints Spirited Away gave people

1. The river on the way to the city gate, the river Chihiro fell when he was a child, the river with many big stones when he first entered, and Nigihayami Kohakunushi are the same, because when he left.

2. The hourglass-like thing in the city gate implies that the time inside the oil house is out of order with the outside world, which paves the way for the vicissitudes of life outside after coming out from behind, as if it had been several years.

3. Chihiro's parents steal guests' food and turn them into pigs, suggesting the greedy nature of human beings. Chihiro is still young and not completely greedy, so he will stop his parents from eating.

4. Kaonashi has no face, which implies that there are many people in the society who have lost their faces or don't want their faces because of loneliness and helplessness, and the mask on their heads implies that even if they don't have a face, they will hang a "fake face" to show others.

5. Xiao Ling said Chihiro was "clumsy", and later she took it back. Suggest that if a person doesn't like you, when you try to change yourself, you will also change others' views on you.

6. Xiaoling eats roasted salamanders, suggesting that some people look like people, but they are not. But not human, not necessarily unkind.

7. Unlike other immortals, the chubby "radish fairy" (with his own name) hates human beings and harms Chihiro, suggesting that even the upper class has the instinct of equality for all.

8. Tang Popo forced Chihiro to change her name, and made her forget her original name, making him forget the way home. It implies a certain relationship between capitalism.

9. Bailong asked Chihiro not to forget his name, implying that he could not forget who he was, no matter who he worked for. Warning people not to forget their own nature at any time.

1. Bailong took Chihiro to see his parents, and found that his parents were just like pigs, suggesting that once they degenerate, no matter who they are, they will become the same.

11. The river god is so dirty that it is polluted by human beings.

12. Chihiro is the one who waits on the river god to take a bath, implying that whoever made the evil will have to pay for it. Human beings make the river dirty, and it depends on people to clean it up, and Chihiro is the only person in the oil house.

13. Chihiro opened the door and let Kaonashi in, which shows that even if he is kind, he will occasionally do bad things (Kaonashi later became a public nuisance in the oil house).

14. Kaonashi gave Chihiro a bunch of high-end brands, which shows that "faceless" people know how to buy people's hearts and girls' hearts with things.

15. "Up and down are United, and its profit breaks gold." The translation is wonderful. To drag dirty things to the river god, no matter the capitalist (Tang Popo), the upper class (guests), the working people at the bottom (Xiao Ling, etc.) and the slaves (frogs, etc.) all worked together with Qi Xin, Tang Popo commanded, and the "radish fairy" waved the flag and shouted, and the workers pulled hard. Why are classes equal at this time? Because the river god has money. Only in the face of money can all classes be equal. In fact, Tang Popo achieved his goal by leaving a pile of money after he left.

16. The river god secretly gave Chihiro meatballs, symbolizing that the river god was very grateful to Chihiro and gave her something useful.

17. But at this time, Kaonashi was lonely, and his credit was ignored. No wonder he only said "cold".

18. Chihiro is accepted by the public.
