Based on the anime film, this live action remake could have an all Japanese cast or have Japanese and American actors, like the "Ghost in the Shell" remake. Chihiro is a sullen 10-year-old girl who is moving to a new house with her parents. Her dad takes a wrong turn and the family encounters an abandoned amusement park. The whole place kinda sort of resembles the Forbidden City. The whole village looks abandoned but the parents smell food that are fresh from the oven. Since they're hungry from the long drive, they stop to eat while Chihiro explores. At sunset a teenage boy named Haku tells her that she has to leave. But it's too late! Her parents have TRANSFORMED INTO PIGS! Haku gives her instructions to get a job at a bathhouse for spirits and monsters, and the guests are not-so-welcoming to humans, especially the head honcho: the witch Yubabba. But since the witch is under oath to give a job to anyone who asks, she gives the job to Chihiro (now named "Sen"). It's all in attempt to see her parents again and set them free. She does manage to get along with some of the locals. But then, a grub-like spirit in a Kabuki mask, simply named "No-Face", stalks Sen and attacks the bathhouse.
