Spirited Away, an animated film directed and written by Miyazaki Hayao and produced by Studio Ghibli, is a wonderful childhood memory of many people. When we marvel at the exquisiteness of the film and are cured by Miyazaki Hayao's reverie, we can also find many places worth pondering.

The film tells the story of a young girl Chihiro who unexpectedly comes to a strange world.

After bidding farewell to his former friends, Chihiro came to this city with his parents. He was still dependent on his friends and parents and was full of confusion about the future world. He and his parents would go to live in a house on the hill. On the way to his address, Chihiro gradually found many small stone houses around him. Mom explained that these stone shrines are the homes of gods. With the driving of cars, there are more and more stone shrines around him, which implies that Chihiro's family has gradually moved away from the human world.

At the end of the road, after Chihiro got off the bus, his parents were interested in the ancient temple in front of them and wanted to find out, but Chihiro resisted, unwilling to go, but couldn't resist his parents' curiosity, so Chihiro's exploration was forced to start. Chihiro's parents were faced with a lot of delicious food and didn't resist the temptation of delicious food. Finally, with the arrival of midnight, they were punished and turned into pigs. It is also implied that there is no such thing as free lunch and cooking anything.

There are also many details in the article. For example, when Hanazono Sakura was taken to the pigsty by Bailong to see his parents, he passed through a flower wall. Looking closely, we can find that there are flowers in different seasons, such as oleander, plum blossom, pea flower and azalea, which also alludes to the difference between this spiritual world and the real world. It is mentioned in the plot that people were turned into pigs and eaten because they ate food from the spiritual world. From the perspective of Xiao Qian, we can see that there are many pigs in the pigsty.

The soup house in the film is an environment full of temptation, desire, jealousy and exclusion. Hanazono Sakura, a newcomer, was initially subjected to many exclusions and difficulties, such as being unable to get a job and enduring the fear of thinking about how to save his parents. However, as the plot progressed, Hanazono Sakura gradually became strong, found his own name with the help of friends, persisted in his initial intention, and grew up in setbacks and difficulties, and finally won everyone's attention. Rescuing one's parents also implies that after entering the society, one should also keep one's original heart, maintain friendship and grasp one's original principles in a society where good and evil are intertwined.

And the middle turning point is the period from the soup bath of Heshen to Kaonashi being swallowed up by desire, which shows human nature incisively and vividly. Desire and lack of human heart swallow the elephant, which eventually leads to the blackening of Kaonashi. Kaonashi is a symbol of loneliness and emptiness, and he also represents people who can't find their own values in society, and is easily influenced by the surrounding things and becomes extreme. However, when he finds his own values in Qian Popo, he will stabilize, which also means the importance of a person's self-cognition.
