Orwell: 2 + 2 = 5
Directed by Raoul Peck
USA/France, 2025, 119 minutes
George Orwell was one of the most radical and visionary authors of the 20th Century, whose 1940s novels, such as 1984 and Animal Farm, foretold a chilling, all-to-believable authoritarian future. Acclaimed director Raoul Peck (I Am Not Your Negro), working with the Orwell Estate, weaves together historical clips, readings from Orwell’s diary, cinematic references, and dynamic modern day footage to craft a definitive portrait and an entirely fresh take on how relevant and prophetic his work has become.
Discussion to be announced.
