Let's discuss 'The Matrix'

The Matrix is the groundbreaking 1999 science fiction action thriller, written and directed by the Wachowski sisters. In the future, man’s crowning achievement is artificial intelligence, a life-form that becomes aware of its existence--as well as its superiority over man--and wages war with its human creators whose soft, organic bodies puts them at a disadvantage and ends up with them losing the war and their freedom in a form of slavery in which they are transformed, by the machines, into flesh and blood batteries.

The Matrix stars Keanu Reeves as Neo, Lawrence Fishburne as Morpheus, Carrie-Anne Moss as Trinity, Hugo Weaving as Agent Smith, and Joe Pantoliano as Cypher.

Fantastic film, and hard to believe that it came out 20 years ago. Many themes in this film that we can get lost in. As usual, we will begin the meeting with a video essay before the discussions. Looking forward to seeing you!
