ORWELL: 2+2=5

Special Features: One week only!

George Orwell was one of the most visionary authors of the 20th century, whose novels “1984” and “Animal Farm” foretold a chilling, all-too-believable authoritarian future. Acclaimed director Raoul Peck (I AM NOT YOUR NEGRO, the Academy Award®-nominated documentary), working in collaboration with the Orwell Estate, seamlessly interweaves historical clips, readings from Orwell’s diary, cinematic references and dynamic modern-day footage to craft what is not only a definitive portrait of the writer himself but also an entirely fresh take on how remarkably relevant and prophetic his work has become. Peck does not simply present the information but demonstrates new ways of seeing it, drawing patterns and connections we might not otherwise realize and championing Orwell as a man from the past who just might hold the key to the world’s future. DIR/PROD Raoul Peck; PROD Alex Gibney, Nick Shumaker. U.S./France, 2025, color, 119 min. RATED R
