It follows the story of a young boy, Harry Potter, who discovers on his 11th birthday that he is a wizard. He attends Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, where he makes friends and uncovers a dark secret surrounding a magical artifact known as the Philosopher's Stone, which grants immortality. Along the way, Harry faces challenges and begins to unravel the mystery of his parents' deaths and his connection to the dark wizard Voldemort.
