Orwell: 2+2=5

(Raoul Peck, 2025, USA/France, 120 minutes)

George Orwell was one of the most visionary authors of the 20th century, whose novels, 1984 and Animal Farm, foretold a chilling, authoritarian future. Acclaimed director Raoul Peck (I Am Not Your Negro) interweaves clips, readings from Orwell's diary, cinematic references, and modern-day footage to craft not only a portrait of the writer, but a fresh take on how prophetic his work has become.
