Cinematheque at the Chazen: Studio Ghibli

A teenaged milliner is cursed by a witch and transformed into an old woman. She is then sent to work as a housekeeper in the huge walking castle belonging to young magician Howl, who holds the key to breaking the hatmaker’s spell. Miyazaki’s follow-up to Spirited Away, an adaptation of a British novel by Diana Wynne Jones, delivers an equally compelling story set in a dazzling visual universe. The English language version will be shown.
