Summary
In a dystopian future, the ultra-violent Alex and his gang commit brutal crimes until his arrest. Subjected to the controversial Ludovico Technique—a behavioral modification experiment—Alex becomes psychologically reprogrammed to abhor violence. The film explores the tension between free will and forced morality as he faces the consequences of his new condition.
