Abstract After resigning from a top-secret position, a man is abducted from his London home and kept prisoner in a mysterious place known only as The Village. Residents of The Village, known only by numbers, are held captive on account of their valuable knowledge. The prisoner, Number Six, must protect his mind in order to preserve his humanity while he struggles to discover the identity of Number One and achieve freedom by escaping from the repressive grasp of his captors.
