Yesterday, Ghibli had a press conference to announce the next film by
Miyazaki-San, to be released in the summer of 2001. It is tentatively titled
as "Sen to Chihiro no Kamikakushi (A Thousand and Chihiro's Spirited Away)".
It's about a ten year-old girl, Chihiro, whose parents were changed into
pigs. She goes to the Land of Spirits to save her parents and has an
adventure. It takes place
in today's Japan.

Disney is partially funding the project.

Also, "Princess Mononoke" will be theater released in Japan with Japanese
subtitles next year.
