挑戰生命意志的海上對決
身懷捕魚絕技的老人，從小就開始跑船，自認為是一個天生的漁夫。年輕時，他膂力過人，如今垂垂老矣，但仍是一個硬漢。
小男孩跟著老人的船捕魚，但老人彷彿被詛咒一般，已經兩個多月沒有捕到魚，男孩只得奉父母之命，離開老人去跟別的船。
這一天，是老人一無所獲的第八十五天。清晨一大早，小男孩一如往常送老人出海。老人緩緩駛離海灣，進入較遠的外海，期待能夠大有斬獲。出海後，老人感覺到釣線下有大魚上鉤。潛在海面下的巨大馬林魚，拉著老人的船往大海的方向游去，老人跟大魚纏鬥了兩天兩夜，靠著豐富的經驗、過人的技術和頑強的意志，最後戰勝了自己的孤單、疼痛和飢餓，解決了大魚。
然而，在老人駛返陸地的途中，大魚的血腥味不斷引來鯊魚前來掠食，老人只得繼續與鯊魚搏鬥。最後，老人平安返港，但大魚已被鯊魚分食得只剩一副巨大的骨骸。疲憊的老人返家入睡，夢見了非洲大草原的獅子......
