The story of Mary Wollstonecraft, the 18th century intellectual radical and mother of Western feminism, along with her two daughters: the forgotten-by-history, illegitimate love-child Fanny Imlay and the infinitely more famous, author of Frankenstein, Mary Shelley.
This feminist ghost story plunges the audience into a fluid, poetic, whirlwind tour through the lives, legacies and times of these three women.
Shaped and misshapen by each other, they swap stories and memories, each intercutting and challenging the narrative offered by another.
