Power, Corruption, and Vigilance in a World in Turmoil

In a riveting film essay, director Raoul Peck (I Am Not Your Negro) not only tells the life story of Orwell but also draws unsettling parallels in a world in upheaval. The collage artwork Orwell: 2 + 2 = 5 is a bold exploration of the workings of power, corruption, and totalitarianism—a warning that democratic decline is often just a matter of not paying attention.
