Fahrenheit 451. Based on the novel by Ray Bradbury

Guy Montag is a firefighter, but in the novel "Fahrenheit 451" firefighters do not extinguish fire, but burn books - a forbidden item, as they sow discord and suffering. One day, the hero meets Clarisse, a mysterious girl who shows him that life extends far beyond screens and technology. This encounter and a series of tragic events will lead the hero to question the foundations of the sluggish, inactive society in which he lives.

Why are books so dangerous? And why are there people willing to give their lives for them?
