What is Harry Potter about?

The movie centers on Harry Potter, who lives in a cupboard beneath the stairs in the home of the Dursleys - his aunt, uncle, and cousin - who all mistreat him in the first novel, Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone (Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone in the US). He finds out he is a magician when he is eleven years old.

He receives a letter of admission to Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry from Hagrid, a half-giant. Harry finds out that the dark wizard Lord Voldemort killed his parents, Lily and James Potter, when he was a newborn. Both of them possessed magical abilities. Voldemort's curse seemed to kill himself when he tried to murder Harry, leaving Harry with a scar that resembled lightning on his forehead. Harry became well-known in the wizarding and witching community as a result of the incident.
