Hayao Miyazaki's Academy Award-nominated animation, Howl's Moving Castle, follows a quiet, good-natured teenage girl, Sophie, who gets turned into a 90-year-old woman by a spiteful witch as she journeys to break the spell. Along the way, Sophie finds herself aboard a magical moving castle where a chatty fire demon, a young apprentice, and the wizard Howl live. The longer Sophie stays, the more she is called to protect her new friends from the war of sorcery outside the castle walls. With a poetic intensity, vivid characters, and exhilarating visual imagination, it's no wonder it was Studio Ghibli's second film to be nominated for an Academy Award.

This screening is part of the Studio Ghibli series, celebrating remarkable animated films, and will be shown in Japanese with English subtitles. Tickets are $5 for SCAD Card holders; $8 for students, seniors, and military; and $10 for the general public.
