Animal Farm is a classic satirical allegorical fable by George Orwell about a revolution on a farm where the animals revolt, drive out all the humans and lead it alone. However, the dream of equality gradually turns into a ruthless tyranny.
When the animals on the farm rebel against their human owner and drive him out, it seems that a beautiful time has finally come for them, filled with freedom, equality and justice. However, some animals manage to abuse this new opportunity. The originally liberating revolution against tyranny gradually turns into a completely new system based on oppression. The truth is rewritten, common ideals disappear under the pressure of forced obedience. An order based on manipulation, propaganda and, above all, fear takes over. Can anyone stand up to it?
The animated film Animal Farm brings a new and contemporary retelling of George Orwell's famous novella as a visually striking parable about power, corruption and the betrayal of ideals. Director and actor Andy Serkis transforms the classic fable into an adventure narrative that combines satire, humor and disturbingly current social overlap. In his adaptation, he does not strive to literally retell Orwell's original, but to transfer it to the contemporary world. In addition to the themes of revolution and totalitarian power, he also emphasizes the manipulation of public opinion, the fragility of democracy and the urgent need to defend the truth from those who want to control it. The film thus not only appeals to a younger audience as a powerful animated story, but also offers adult viewers an urgent and contemporary social statement.
The film had its world premiere at the Annecy Animated Film Festival and was subsequently screened at the BFI London Film Festival. The original version features leading American actors, while a Czech dubbed version is also being released in cinemas.
