The Matrix

Screening on Film
Directed by Andy and Larry Wachowski.

US, 1999, 35mm, color, 136 min.

One of the top grossing films of 1999, Andy and Larry Wachowski’s The Matrix set a new benchmark in movie special effects. Blending classic science-fiction stories such as Alien, Soylent Green, and The Terminator with Chinese martial arts films, Japanese animation, and American comic art, and adding a touch of mysticism to the mix, the Wachowskis created an unparalleled vision of a future that seems very like our own present—with a surreal twist.
