An exhilarating documentary from firebrand filmmaker Raoul Peck (I Am Not Your Negro) explores the legacy of writer George Orwell. A powerful montage of contemporary newsreels, photographs, film and archive footage, Peck charts the sinister reverberations of authoritarianism that echo through the 20th century to our present day - from Myanmar and Gaza, to Russia, the Donbass and Trump’s America. This is vital, angry and galvanising filmmaking for our times.
