Walt Kowalski (Eastwood), a racist Korean War veteran, becomes increasingly unhappy at the influx of Hmong people to his neighborhood. After he catches Tao (Vang), a teenage Hmong neighbor, attempting to steal his vintage Gran Torino car as part of a gang initiation, the boy is forced by the gang to work for Kowalski in penance. Estranged from his children and grandchildren, and having just lost his wife, Kowalski gradually becomes friendly with Tao and his family, learning about Hmong culture. He steadily loses his racist façade and attempts to protect Tao and his sister Sue (Her) from the gang.
