Hayao Miyazaki's Howl's Moving Castle is a cult favourite amongst Studio Ghibli fans, based on the novel of the same name by British author Diana Wynne Jones. Set in a fictional world where one kingdom is at war with its neighbour, the story follows Sophie, a hat seamstress, who is magically transformed into an old woman by a witch's curse. She stumbles upon a wizard called Howl, and his magic castle that allows him to move effortlessly between cities via the use of a magic door portal, as well as physically across the landscape. Howl is summoned by the king of one kingdom to fight in the war, but Howl decides to try and stop the war himself. Sophie and Howl are accompanied by Calcifer, a living flame, and Turnip Head, a prince who has been turned into a scarecrow. Here's a selection of Displate artwork based on the popular Japanese animated film.
