ORWELL: 2+2=5

One of the most radical and visionary authors of the 20th Century, George Orwell’s 1940s novels, such as 1984 and Animal Farm, foretold a chilling, all-too-believable authoritarian future. Acclaimed director Raoul Peck (I Am Not Your Negro), working with the Orwell Estate, seamlessly interweaves historical clips, Orwell’s diary entries, cinematic references, and dynamic modern footage to craft both a definitive portrait of the writer and an entirely fresh take on his remarkably prophetic works.
