They used devices to avoid clear thinking, masks to hide beauty with the purpose of placing people in the same level.
The characters are the Bergeron family in which the son, Harrison Bergeron, was so superior that no "containment" device could avoid his skills and appearance to show up. In a tentative of changing the world and freeing the handicapped people, and after all that being their "King", Harrison defies the system and ends up being murdered by the commander of this new world: The United States Handicapper General. As no one could remember what happened on the moment before, even Harrison's parents who were watching the scene on TV, the world continued as it were.
