Lucy (Scarlett Johansson), an American student in Taiwan, stumbles into the murky world of drug smuggling controlled by a ruthless Korean crime lord (Choi Min Sik). Her brain is permanently altered by an illegal synthetic drug, CPH4 – her physical and mental capabilities evolve beyond human comprehension and she seeks out the help of neuroscientist Dr. Samuel Norman (Morgan Freeman), perhaps the only human capable of comprehending her plight.
