“He Who Controls The Past Controls The Future. He Who Controls The Present Controls The Past.”

"War is peace, Freedom is slavery, and ignorance is strength."

Storyline: In a totalitarian future society, a man, whose daily work is re-writing history, tries to rebel by falling in love.

Longing for freedom, the lowly bureaucrat of the Ministry of Truth, Winston Smith, summons up the courage to write down his unspoken desires in his little secret diary.

Serving silently at the pleasure of the grim, autocratic hyper-state of Oceania, Smith knows that the English Socialist Party's supreme leader, the omnipotent Big Brother, watches his every move, condemning the already terrified people into a life of slavery.

Under those dire circumstances--as the totalitarian government's suffocating stranglehold tightens more and more--Julia, another equally seditious party member, crosses paths with Winston, and a dangerous clandestine affair begins.

Now, there's no turning back, and, sooner or later, the illicit couple will have to pay for its hideous crimes against the dictatorial state. What makes a good citizen? Written by Nick Riganas

Nineteen Eighty-Four: A Novel, often published as 1984, is a dystopian social science fiction novel by English novelist George Orwell.

It was published on 8 June 1949 by Secker & Warburg as Orwell's ninth and final book completed in his lifetime.

Thematically, Nineteen Eighty-Four centres on the consequences of totalitarianism, mass surveillance, and repressive regimentation of persons and behaviours within society.[2][3]

Orwell, himself a democratic socialist, modelled the authoritarian government in the novel after Stalinist Russia.[2][3][4]

More broadly, the novel examines the role of truth and facts within politics and the ways in which they are manipulated.
