Al sud dels Estats Units, en plena Depressió, Paul Edgecomb és un vigilant penitenciari a càrrec de la Milla Verda, un passadís que separa les cel·les dels reclusos condemnats a la cadira elèctrica. Esperant la seva execució hi ha John Coffey, un gegantí negre acusat d'assassinar brutalment dues germanes de nou anys. Després d'una personalitat ingènua, Coffey amaga un do sobrenatural prodigiós. A mesura que transcorre la història, Paul Edgecomb aprèn que els miracles passen... fins i tot als llocs més insospitats.
