Piotr est victime d'un choc frontal lors d'un accident de la circulation. S'ensuit une perte générale de son intellect. Après un coma suivi d'un traitement en milieu médicalisé, il va devoir se reconstruire au quotidien, entre les tentatives de remémorisation du passé et les nouveaux acquis qui constituent le processus d'une renaissance quasi complète. Le chemin pour y parvenir est semé d'embûches et de succès, d'espoirs et de désillusions, de joies mais aussi de peines assumées par son amie Marilyn, qui lui voue un amour intact et qui ne connaît ni résignation ni abandon.

Modern Times portrays Chaplin as a factory worker employed on an assembly line. There, he is subjected to such indignities as being force-fed by a "modern" feeding machine and an accelerating assembly line where he screws nuts at an ever-increasing rate onto pieces of machinery. He finally suffers a nervous breakdown and runs amok, throwing the factory into chaos. He is sent to a hospital. Following his recovery, the now unemployed factory worker is mistakenly arrested as an instigator in a Communist demonstration. In jail, he accidentally ingests smuggled cocaine, mistaking it for salt. In his subsequent delirium, he gets out of the jail. When he returns, he stumbles upon a jailbreak and knocks the convicts unconscious. He is hailed a hero and is released.
