Alex, a teenager in a dystopian London, practices ultraviolence with his gang while listening to Beethoven. When he is betrayed by his droogs, Alex ends up imprisoned and subjected to an experimental treatment that seeks to nullify his violence. The narration in Nadsat slang invites reflection on freedom, morality, and punishment.
