In the city of Baltimore in 1860, Benjamin Button is born with a strange condition: instead of arriving as a baby, he is an old man of seventy. As time passes, Benjamin grows younger instead of aging, experiencing love, war, and society in a completely unique way. His unusual existence forces him to navigate a world that follows the natural course of time while he moves in reverse.
