Presentation

1949. George Orwell completes what would be his final, yet most significant, novel, 1984.
Orwell: 2+2=5 delves into the final months of Orwell’s life and his visionary work to explore the roots of the unsettling concepts he revealed to the world in his dystopian masterpiece: doublethink, thoughtcrime, Newspeak, the ever-present spectre of Big Brother... sociopolitical truths that resonate even more powerfully today.

A proposal from Amnesty International France followed by a meeting with Katia Roux, Freedom Advocacy Officer at Amnesty International France.
