Orwell: 2+2=5

Monday, October 26, 2026

Jerusalem Cinematheque

₪43

A fascinating film by Oscar-nominated documentary filmmaker Raoul Peck. Peck dives into one of the best-known and most acclaimed books in history, George Orwell's "1984", and uses it to examine the modern world we live in and to ask whether Orwell's prophecy of "Big Brother" has come true. Through archival footage, film scenes and the voice of award-winning actor Damian Lewis, "Orwell: 2+2=5" casts today's society and global politics in a new light, confronting us with questions and conclusions about the human condition.
