Howl's Moving Castle Plot Synopsis

The following information may contain spoilers.

Sophie was a diligent teenage girl working in her family's hat shop, but her life was thrown into turmoil when she was literally swept off her feet by the handsome-but-mysterious wizard named Howl. This innocent encounter enraged the vain and conniving Witch of the Waste, who transformed Sophie into a 90-year-old woman. Sophie's efforts to break the curse bring her to Howl's magical moving castle where she befriends Michael (known as Markl in the Disney translation), Howl's apprentice, and the hot-headed fire demon Calcifer. Her love and support for this strange new family have a major impact on Howl, who can be maddeningly self-indulgent and singularly noble. He defies royal orders to participate in a meaningless war and risks his life to bring peace to the kingdom, but themore he uses his power the more he transforms into a monster. With Howl & Sophie each looking for their own true identity and a secret contract between the wizard & his fire demon, they're drawn together despite the raging war around them.
