A Clockwork Orange

Confirmed1971-10-288.28.0Trakt

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?

A Clockwork Orange is Stanley Kubrick's 1971 dystopian masterpiece, adapted from Anthony Burgess's novel. Set in a nightmarish near-future Britain, the film follows young delinquent Alex DeLarge as he faces state-mandated psychological conditioning after his arrest. A landmark work of science fiction cinema exploring free will, violence, and morality, it remains one of the most discussed and debated films ever made.
