Obsesionado con traspasar los lÃmites de la ciencia, el inquieto y entusiasta cientÃfico Victor Frankenstein logra dar forma y vida a un ser construido a partir de restos humanos. Sin embargo, su hazaña se convierte de inmediato en horror: incapaz de soportar su fealdad antinatural, rechaza y destierra a su creación... El ente aprende a hablar, leer y comprender el mundo, pero también a sentir el peso del abandono. Su soledad se transforma en rabia y decide ir tras su creador en busca de compañÃa o, quizá, venganza...
