Frontline Club

Directed by Raoul Peck (I Am Not Your Negro)

Frontline Club 2026

Championing Independent Journalism & Freedom of Speech around  the Globe. Founded in Paddington London 13 Norfolk Place W2 1QJ Frontline Club is a UK Registered Charity, each event you attend pays it forward for another event.

<p>George Orwell was one of the most visionary authors of the 20th Century, whose novels 1984 and Animal Farm foretold a chilling, all-to-believable authoritarian future. Acclaimed director Raoul Peck (Academy Award-nominated I Am Not Your Negro), working in collaboration with the Orwell Estate, seamlessly interweaves historical clips, readings from Orwell's diary, cinematic references, and dynamic modern day footage to craft not only a definitive portrait of the writer himself, but an entirely fresh take on how remarkably relevant and prophetic his work has become. Peck doesn't just present the information but shows new ways of seeing it, drawing patterns and connections we might not otherwise realize, championing Orwell as a man from the past who just might hold the key to the world's future.</p>
