Winston Smith lebt im totalitären Staat Ozeanien, wo das allmächtige Regime jede Handlung, jedes Wort und jeden Gedanken kontrolliert. Als er beginnt, an der offiziellen Wahrheit zu zweifeln – und sich verliebt –, wird sein Leben zu einem Kampf gegen ein System, das keine Freiheit duldet.

Radio is mute on all frequencies. The only survivors of the last war were those who made it into the gates of the Metro, the subway system of Moscow city. It's there, hundreds of feet below the ground, in the vaults of what was constructed as the world's largest air-raid shelter, where now people try to outlive the end of days.
