SYNOPSIS

Kiki  (Fuka  Koshiba)  is  the  daughter of a witch Koriki. Following an ancient law of witchery, once Kiki turns 13 she must travel to  another place  to  live  on  her  own  for  one year. With Jiji, her black cat, she climbs on her broom and flies off until she finds  the  town  of  Koriko, set  in  a  group  of  islands far over the sea. Flying over the town, she spies a windmill. Landing, she smells bread and comes into the  'Buy Bye  Bakery'.  Bearing  in  mind  her  mother's  admonition  to always 'keep smiling', she decides to start  a  broom-based  delivery  service. But words of the 'curse' spread and soon people return everything she has  delivered.  In  shock,  she  loses her ability to fly, and resolves to abandon her hopes of becoming a  full-fledged  witch.  What  will  she do? Will she recover both her magic and her smile?
