ANGELIKA’S NOTE

An instant icon surpassing beyond the genre of science-fiction, 4-time Oscar winner and #16 in the IMDB Top Rated Movies, THE MATRIX, directed by sisters Lana and Lilly Wachowski (BOUND, CLOUD ATLAS), is an experience like no other. With mind-bending performances from Keanu Reeves (SPEED, POINT BREAK), Laurence Fishburne (MYSTIC RIVER, CONTAGION), and Carrie-Anne Moss (MEMENTO, FIDO), THE MATRIX is sure to make you reconsider your perceptions of the world around you. Washington Post raves, "Special kudos to the mysterious Wachowski tag team, who have created a lurid, splashy nightmare for the end of the millennium."

SYNOPSIS

Thomas A. Anderson is a man living two lives. By day he is an average computer programmer and by night a hacker known as Neo. Neo has always questioned his reality, but the truth is far beyond his imagination. Neo finds himself targeted by the police when he is contacted by Morpheus, a legendary computer hacker branded a terrorist by the government. As a rebel against the machines, Neo must confront the agents: super-powerful computer programs devoted to stopping Neo and the entire human rebellion.
