'Who controls the past controls the future: who controls the present controls the past.' Hidden in the Records Department of the sprawling Ministry of Truth, Winston Smith skillfully rewrites the past to suit the needs of the Party. However, internally he rebels against the totalitarian world in which he lives, which demands absolute obedience and controls him through the omnipresent telescreens and the watchful eye of Big Brother, the Party's symbolic leader. In his desire for truth and freedom, Smith begins a secret love affair with his colleague, Julia, but soon discovers that the true price of freedom is betrayal.
