1984
After the Atomic War the world is divided into three states. London is the capital of Oceania, ruled by a party which has total control of over its citizens.
Winston Smith is a Party worker. He works in the records Department of the Ministry of Truth - the section charged with modifying historical news archives and rewriting history. When by chance Winston uncovers proof that the Party is lying, he embarks on a journey of self-questioning. In doing so, he becomes a thought-criminal.
Winston begins to notice that a young party member, Julia, is watching him. He fears that she is an informant. However, to his surprise, she reveals herself as a subversive and they embark on an illicit and dangerous relationship. They try to escape Big Brother's listening and viewing devices, but, of course, nobody can really escape.
