When single parent/computer engineer John inherits a collection of arcane objects, journals and sketches from ‘mysterious Aunt Mo’, he confines them to the loft where they remain untouched and gathering dust for over a decade.

Seeking inspiration for her school art class, John’s intelligent and artistic 11-year-old daughter Charlotte accidentally uncovers them, latching on to Mo’s wild, surreal creativity and bizarre scientific theories with a child-like obsession and wonder.

Having lost her mother during birth, Charlotte bombards John with hundreds of questions about her new-found female relative: Who was Mo? How did she die? Did she go insane? Why did she draw such weird pictures? Dad, why can’t you remember?

As Mo’s enigmatic and other-worldly possessions nestle their way into Charlotte’s everyday existence, Charlotte becomes more challenging, rebellious and withdrawn. Forced to embark upon her own research, she eventually questions whether Mo really was the ‘distant relative’ her father claims.

As John and Charlotte grow apart, each struggling with their own personal challenges, both are forced to consider a new reality: that Mo may in fact be simply a fabrication of John’s imagination and that Charlotte’s mother – in one way or another – might still be alive.

Told across a time period of 19 years, Pluto is a work of transmedia fiction that offers compelling windows into a splintered storyworld where ‘reality’ is subject to continuous fluctuations against a backdrop of rapidly changing technology.
