In a post-apocalyptic wasteland, a woman rebels against a tyrannical ruler in search for her homeland with the aid of a group of female prisoners, a psychotic worshipper and a drifter named Max.

An apocalyptic story set in the furthest reaches of our planet, in a stark desert landscape where humanity is broken, and almost everyone is crazed fighting for the necessities of life. Within this world exist two rebels on the run who just might be able to restore order. There's Max, a man of action and a man of few words, who seeks peace of mind following the loss of his wife and child in the aftermath of the chaos. And Furiosa, a woman of action and a woman who believes her path to survival may be achieved if she can make it across the desert back to her childhood homeland.—Production

In the stark desert wasteland populated by a broken humanity driven with survival and the unending ravage for gasoline, a loner named Max finds himself unwantedly caught in the middle of a chase while aiding the heroine Furiosa and her female companions. She struggles to return to her homeland and escape the clutches of a ruthless desert gang leader, Immortal Joe. With the harsh desert sands in front of them and marauders behind, only the maddest will prevail the storm.

Years after the collapse of civilization, the tyrannical Immortal Joe enslaves apocalypse survivors inside the desert fortress the Citadel. When the warrior Imperator Furiosa leads the despot's five wives in a daring escape, she forges an alliance with Max Rockatansky, a loner and former captive. Fortified in the massive, armored truck the War Rig, they try to outrun the ruthless warlord and his henchmen in a deadly high-speed chase through the Wasteland.—Jwelch5742

Trapped in the barren deserts of the dystopian Wasteland, lone road warrior Max Rockatansky struggles to stay one step ahead of the water-controlling overlord Immortan Joe and the Wild Boys, his loyal gang of marauders. But life in the carcass of civilisation is cheap. And to further complicate matters, Max then crosses paths with fearless Imperator Furiosa: one of Joe's elite lieutenants and a traitor--she has just fled the Citadel in her heavily armoured truck, The War Rig, absconding with an irreplaceable quintet of wives. Now, there is no turning back. As the powerful tyrant and his unstoppable horde of delusional zealots hunt them down with murderous intent, Max and Furiosa will need all the help they can get to stay alive. However, do they have what it takes to cheat death and live to tell the tale?—Nick Riganas

Following a nuclear holocaust, the world has become a desert wasteland and civilization has collapsed. Max Rockatansky (Tom Hardy), a survivor, is captured by the War Boys, the army of the tyrannical Immortan Joe (Hugh Keays-Byrne) and taken to Joe's Citadel. Max is haunted by nightmares of a woman and a child that he failed to protect. At the Citadel, Max's hair is shaved, and his vital information is tattooed on his back. Max tries to escape but realizes that he is being inside a cave system of a stump like mountain with sheer drops to the surface on all sides.

Designated a universal blood donor, Max is imprisoned and used as a "blood bag" for a sick War Boy called Nux (Nicholas Hoult). Meanwhile, Imperator Furiosa (Charlize Theron), one of Joe's lieutenants with one artificial arm, is sent in her armored truck to trade produce and water for petrol and ammunition with two of his allies, the Bullet Farmer (Richard Carter) and the People Eater (John Howard) ruler of Gas Town. Joe is an old man, who has blisters all over his body. He requires a special suit to protect his body and an oxygen mask that allows him to breathe. Joe rules the population with an iron fist and controls them with limited release of water for consumption at periodic intervals. The water is stored in the mountain stump, and released for a few moments on orders of Joe, for the teeming masses living below.

When Furiosa drives off-route, Joe realizes that his five wives-women selected for breeding-are missing. Joe leads his entire army in pursuit of Furiosa, calling on the aid of nearby Gas Town and the Bullet Farm.

Nux joins the pursuit with Max strapped to his car to continue supplying blood. Meanwhile, Furiosa's rig is attacked by Buzzards in hostile territory. Her own escort, who is not aware that Furiosa has betrayed Joe, helps her fight off the Buzzards, but that's when Joe and his forces catch up with Furiosa. A battle ensues between the truck and Joe's forces. Furiosa drives into a sandstorm, evading her pursuers, except Nux, who attempts to sacrifice himself to destroy the truck. Max escapes and restrains Nux, but the car is destroyed.

After the storm, Max sees Furiosa repairing her truck, accompanied by the Wives: Capable (Riley Keough) the most level-headed and mature of the five, Cheedo the Fragile (Courtney Eaton) the meekest and most timid, Toast the Knowing (Zoe Kravitz) the most practical and intellectual of the five and is shown to have good knowledge of guns, the Dag (Abbey Lee) an eccentric and bold personality, and The Splendid Angharad (Rosie Huntington-Whiteley) Joe's most "treasured" breeder, the last of whom is heavily pregnant with Joe's child. Max steals the truck, but its kill switch disables it.

Max begrudgingly agrees to help Furiosa's group escape Joe's wrath. Nux sneaks onto the Rig and attempts to kill Furiosa, but the women overpower him and throw him out. Nux who was left behind, is picked up by Joe's army.

Furiosa drives through a biker gang-controlled canyon to barter a deal for safe passage. However, with Joe's forces pursuing, the gang turns on her, forcing her and the group to flee while the bikers detonate the canyon walls to block Joe. Joe drives over the blockade in a monster truck and catches up with the Rig. He sends Nux to carjack the Rig. Max and Furiosa fight pursuing bikers as Joe's car, with Nux now on board, surmounts the blockade and eventually attacks Furiosa's truck, allowing Nux to board. However, as the truck escapes, Angharad falls off in an attempt to protect Max and is run over by Joe's car, mortally wounding her and her child.

Furiosa explains to Max that they are escaping to the "Green Place", an idyllic land she remembers from her childhood. Capable finds Nux hiding in the truck, distraught over his failure, and consoles him. That night, the truck gets stuck in mud. Furiosa and Max slow Joe's forces with mines, but Joe's ally, the Bullet Farmer (Richard Carter), continues pursuing them. Nux helps Max free the truck while Furiosa shoots and blinds the Bullet Farmer. Max walks into the dark to confront the Bullet Farmer and his men, returning with guns and ammunition. Moved by Capable's compassion, Nux joins the group and helps get the Rig moving again.

They drive the truck overnight through swampland and desert, coming across a naked woman the next day. Max suspects a trap, but Furiosa approaches the woman and states her history and clan affiliation. The naked woman summons her clan, the Vuvalini, who recognize Furiosa as one of their own who was kidnapped as a child. Furiosa is devastated to learn that the swampland they passed was indeed the Green Place, now inhospitable. The Vulvalini include The Valkyrie (Megan Gale), The Keeper of the Seeds (Melissa Jaffer) and others (Melita Jurisic, Gillian Jones, Joy Smithers, Antoinette Kellerman, and Christina Koch).

The group then plans to ride motorbikes across immense salt flats in the hope of finding a new home. Max chooses to stay behind, but after seeing visions of a child he failed to save, he convinces them to return to the undefended Citadel, which has ample water and greenery that Joe keeps for himself, and trap Joe and his army in the bikers' canyon.

The group heads back to the Citadel, but they are attacked on route by Joe's forces, and Furiosa is seriously wounded. Joe positions his car in front of the truck to slow it, while Max fights Joe's giant son, Rictus Erectus (Nathan Jones). Joe captures Toast, but she distracts him long enough for Furiosa to rip off his breathing mask, killing him. Nux sacrifices himself by wrecking the truck, killing Rictus and blocking the canyon, allowing Max, Furiosa, the wives, and the Vuvalini to successfully escape in Joe's car, where Max transfuses his blood to Furiosa to help her survive her injuries.

At the Citadel, the impoverished citizens are overjoyed at the sight of Joe's corpse. Furiosa, the wives, and the Vuvalini are cheered by the people and welcomed by the War Boys, but Max walks away, sharing a glance with Furiosa before disappearing into the crowd.
