This video sketches the psychological conflict that defines the character of Sophie in Howl's Moving Castle, which is a 2004 animated movie (anime) directed by Hayao Miyazaki.
Sophie is a lonely girl who believes that she is ugly, and she also believes that she is lonely because she is ugly, because (as she sees it) people only want to be friends with beautiful girls.
The irony behind this set of beliefs, however, is that Sophie was cursed by the Witch of the Waste precisely for being too beautiful! The witch is jealous of her youthful beauty, because she believes that Sophie's beauty causes her to win Howl's love, which the Witch of the Waste covets. So she turns Sophie into an elderly woman.
