Synopsis

There comes a time in all of our lives when we have to set out on our own and make a go of living independently. For Kiki, that moment comes shortly after she turns 13. That might seem a little on the young side, but Kiki is a witch-in-training. As part of her supernatural calling she has to spend a year living away from her mother in a new town where she has no connections. Boldly setting off to find her, she ends up in a pretty seaside town called Korico - and there she finds all kinds of adventures awaiting her. This is a hugely enjoyable slice of anime from director Hayao Miyazaki, creator of such classics as Spirited Away.
