Sophie’s busy weekdays are spent in the hat shop she inherited from her father. Given her young age, she rarely allows herself to go to the nearby town for a bit of fun; but during one of her outings, she meets Howl, the incredibly charming wizard. Misunderstanding their relationship, the jealous Witch of the Waste casts a terrible curse on Sophie: she transforms her into a 90-year-old woman. Completely devastated, the girl flees into the wasteland until she accidentally stumbles upon Howl’s wandering castle. Concealing her identity, she gets a job as a cleaning lady in the castle. This mysterious and energetic woman soon breathes life into the rooms of the ancient castle, inhabited only by Markl, the wizard’s fluffy-bearded apprentice, and Calcifer, the fire demon who manages the house. This is the place where Sophie can finally unleash her talents and perform extraordinary miracles. Her shared story with Howl may be just beginning.
