Poslovnež Oh Dae-su se neke noči leta 1988 znajde zaprt v majhni hotelski sobi brez oken in tam ostane petnajst let. Ne ve, kdo ali zakaj mu je naprtil kruto kazen. Kriv je brez krivde. Izdeluje sezname ljudi, ki jih je v življenju prizadel, da bi našel razlog. Njegovi neusmiljeni ugrabitelji ga preživljajo in hranijo s pomirjevali. Družbo mu dela le televizija. Po petnajstih letih samotne agonije je Oh Dae-su vržen v prostost. V žepu ima denar in mobilni telefon, na sebi drago obleko, v sebi pa sovraštvo in en sam cilj: maščevati se neznancu, ki mu je, dozdevno brez razloga, odvzel življenje.
