Description
From Academy Award®-nominated filmmaker Raoul Peck (I Am Not Your Negro), Orwell: 2 + 2 = 5 is a bold, sweeping portrait of one of the most radical and prophetic writers of the twentieth century. Working in collaboration with the Orwell Estate, Peck interweaves archival footage, readings from Orwell’s diaries, cinematic imagery, and contemporary news footage to reveal how George Orwell’s warnings about totalitarianism, propaganda, and manipulation of truth resonate more urgently than ever.
Narrated by Damian Lewis as the voice of Orwell, the film retraces the author’s personal and political evolution—from his upbringing in British-ruled India to his experiences in the Spanish Civil War and his fight against tyranny in all its forms. In a world increasingly defined by doublespeak, surveillance, and authoritarian drift, Peck’s documentary is both a gripping study of a man and a mirror held up to our times.
