Imagine that the world around us is generated in real-time interactive game. The shapes, colors and sounds are just streams of bits that are loaded directly into the cerebral cortex of people plunged into coma. This incredible vision is to be faced by the protagonist of the film. Neo is not an average hacker, and for sure he is also not an average man. Asking himself questions, that he is not able to articulate, waking up at night with the conviction that something in his life does not fit.
Action begins when a person named Morpheus (not by coincidence named after the god of dreams) finds Neo and teaches him about illusion in which he have lived from the day he was born. Morpheus reveals the true story about the human race, once dominant on the Earth, which has now became the ecological source of energy for the machines endowed with intelligence. As Neo learns, "people are not born anymore, people are reared". The real world is a nightmare straight from the graphics of Giger, in comparison with which the cities shown in ‘Blade Runner’ or ‘Terminator’ seem to be oases of peace, and what Neo considered to be a real world proves to be a great illusion generated in virtual reality.
Now he is being taught how relative is the concept of reality.
For a human being it is not so important whether something really exists, moves, has a weight or color, but rather how realistic is what he/she perceives. Matrix, developed by computers, has been producing an illusion of reality which was so real that very few were able to challenge the world in which they grew up.
One member of Morpheus' anarchist crew, Cipher explicitly preferred a virtual idyll to the grim reality of burned sky and deserted cities. He concluded that since the unreal steak tastes better than the real gruels being served on board of the Nebuchadnezzar, why should he bother? All in all, Cipher’s motto ‘Ignorance is bliss’ led him to pretty realistic death.
