Hugo is an orphan boy living in the walls of a train station in 1930s Paris. He learned to fix clocks and other gadgets from his father and uncle which he puts to
use keeping the train station clocks running. The only thing that he has left that connects him to his dead father is an automaton (mechanical man) that doesn't work
without a special key. Hugo needs to find the key to unlock the secret he believes it contains. On his adventures| he meets George Melies| a shopkeeper| who works in
the train station| and his adventure-seeking god-daughter. Hugo finds that they have a surprising connection to his father and the automaton| and he discovers it
unlocks some memories the old man has buried inside regarding his past.
Hugo is an extravagant, elegant fantasy with an innocence lacking in many modern kids' movies, and one that emanates an unabashed love for the magic of cinema.
