V for Vendetta
People should not be afraid of their governments. Governments should be afraid of their people.
In a near-future Britain, freedom is a memory. The nation is ruled by the iron fist of a fascist state, its people silenced by surveillance and fear. But on the 5th of November, a single, explosive act of defiance ignites a revolution.
He is “V”, a charismatic, articulate, and brilliant freedom fighter hidden behind the enigmatic smile of a Guy Fawkes mask. He wages a theatrical, one-man war against the regime that created him, seeking to awaken a nation from its long, complacent slumber.
When he rescues a young woman named Evey from the secret police, he draws her into his shadowy world of vengeance and a meticulously orchestrated plot to give the country back to its citizens. V for Vendetta is a visceral and intelligent thriller about the power of a single idea to topple an empire and prove that even in the face of tyranny, some things are truly bulletproof.
