Orwell [videorecording] : 2+2=5 / Neon presents ; Jigsaw productions ; a Velvet film ; Universal Pictures content group ; produced by Alex Gibney, George Chignell, Nick Shumaker ; directed by Raoul Peck.
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.
