Plot.
In a drab, anonymous gray school governed by a strict authoritarian regime, an apparently unremarkable day is turned on its head following a seemingly ridiculous announcement. Disbelieving at first, the all male, identically uniformed pupils are informed that what they had always been taught as fact is no longer true. When the incredulous students speak out, what initially seems laughably absurd becomes desperately real as they are forced to question how far they will go to stand up for their beliefs. Two & Two is an allegory for the absurdness of dictatorship and tyranny - and the resilience of the human spirit.

Wiki.
Two & Two is a 2011 political themed short film directed by Babak Anvari, co-produced by Babak Anvari and Kit Fraser and written by Babak Anvari and Gavin Cullen. The short film, which runs for 8 minutes, stars a male teacher, played by Bijan Daneshmand, and twelve students in a grey wall classroom, showing the first lesson, which is an expression of 2 + 2 = 5. It is notably similar to the novel Nineteen Eighty-Four by George Orwell.
