In a futuristic dystopia, young Alex leads a gang and commits violence for pleasure, in a world governed by the 'nadsat' slang and a blurred morality. When the State tries to 'cure' his brutality, the conflict between free will and social control emerges. Burgess reflects on freedom, cruelty, and human nature.
