Based on George Orwell’s 1984, dive into a dystopian universe that paints a frightening and bleak future under Big Brother - a regime that totally controls its citizens. BAL DU MAC 2017 explores the obliteration of truth, individuality and liberty in a world where power seeks to control everything. This project explored the strong similarities and the challenges of the freedom we take for granted. It mirrors some of the realities currently that are happening in our present world.
