The Party controls everything—what people do, say, and even think—through constant surveillance, propaganda, and strict laws. Winston secretly hates the Party and dreams of rebellion. When he falls in love with Julia, they begin a secret relationship, hoping to find freedom. But in a world where even your thoughts can betray you, their resistance is doomed from the start. Eventually, Winston is caught, tortured, and brainwashed until he completely surrenders to the Party, proving that in this society, true freedom is impossible.
