About this Event
Have you ever had a dream that you were so sure was real? What if you were unable to wake from that dream? How would you know the difference between the dream world and the real world? When a beautiful stranger (Carrie Ann Moss) leads computer hacker Neo (Keanu Reeves) to a forbidding underworld, he discovers the shocking truth — the life he knows is the elaborate deception of an evil cyber-intelligence. Neo joins legendary and dangerous rebel warrior Morpheus (Lawrence Fishburne) in the battle to destroy the illusion of enslaving humanity.
A watershed movie that paved the way for three sequels, a spin-off anime, video games, and endless parodies and think pieces, THE MATRIX isn’t just one of the most influential movies of all time — it changed how the mainstream responded to reality itself. Keanu Reeves stars as the computer programmer drawn into the “real world” of freedom fighters, who are up against a computer-driven digital matrix feeding on humans, and necktie-clad agents of a simulation (led by Hugo Weaving) tasked with keeping the system in place. From its popularization of wire fu and groundbreaking bullet-time effects demonstrating the concept of faster than a speeding bullet, to its head-to-toe leather aesthetic, the Wachowskis’ magnum opus is still written all over pop culture today.
