Overview
In a near-future Britain, young Alexander DeLarge and his pals get their kicks beating and raping anyone they please. When not destroying the lives of others, Alex swoons to the music of Beethoven. The state, eager to crack down on juvenile crime, gives an incarcerated Alex the option to undergo an invasive procedure that'll rob him of all personal agency. In a time when conscience is a commodity, can Alex change his tune?

How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A provocative descent into a dystopian nightmare where a remorseless sociopath's violent spree and forced rehabilitation become a darkly comic meditation on whether free will, even to do evil, matters more than imposed morality. The film's audacious direction and controversial content demand engagement rather than comfort.
