Abaut The Matrix:
The Matrix is a 1999 science fiction film written and directed by The Wachowskis, starring Keanu Reeves, Laurence Fishburne, Carrie-Anne Moss, Hugo Weaving, and Joe Pantoliano. It depicts a dystopian future in which reality as perceived by most humans is actually a simulated reality called "the Matrix", created by sentient machines to subdue the human population, while their bodies' heat and electrical activity are used as an energy source. Computer programmer Neo learns this truth and is drawn into a rebellion against the machines, which involves other people who have been freed from the "dream world."
The Matrix is known for popularizing a visual effect known as "bullet time", in which the heightened perception of certain characters is represented by allowing the action within a shot to progress in slow-motion while the camera's viewpoint appears to move through the scene at normal speed. The film is an example of the cyberpunk subgenre.[5] It contains numerous references to philosophical and religious ideas, and prominently pays homage to works such as Plato's Allegory of the Cave,[6] Jean Baudrillard's Simulacra and Simulation[7] and Lewis Carroll's Alice's Adventures in Wonderland.[8] The Wachowskis' approach to action scenes drew upon their admiration for Japanese animation and martial arts films, and the film's use of fight choreographers and wire fu techniques from Hong Kong action cinema influenced subsequent Hollywood action film productions.
The Matrix was first released in the United States on March 31, 1999, and grossed over $460 million worldwide. It was well-received by critics[10][11] and won four Academy Awards, as well as other accolades, including BAFTA Awards and Saturn Awards. Reviewers praised The Matrix for its innovative visual effects, cinematography and entertainment value. The film's premise was both criticized for being derivative of earlier science fiction works and praised for being intriguing. The action also polarized critics, some describing it as impressive, but others dismissing it as a trite distraction from an interesting premise.

Starling clouds, always spectacular, become more active when they are near a predator, thus reminiscent of the movie The Matrix and its clouds of robots.
Si tomas la puerta azul, fin de la historia, despertaras en tu cama y creerás lo que quieras creerte.
Si tomas la roja te quedaras en el País de las Maravillas y yo te enseñare hasta donde llega la madriguera de conejos.
Recuerda, lo único que te ofrezco es la verdad. Nada más

If you take the blue door, end of story, you will wake up in your bed and believe what you want to believe.
If you take the red one you will stay in Wonderland and I will show you how far the rabbit hole comes.
Remember, the only thing I offer you is the truth. Nothing else

"Everyone carries a room about inside them.
This fact can be proved by means of the sense of hearing.
If someone walks fast and one pricks up one's ears
and listens, say at night, when everything round about
is quiet, one hears, for instance, the rattling
of a mirror not quite firmly fastened to the wall."
- Franz Kafka, "Blue Octavo Notebooks" (1917-19).
Is there any more enigmatic writer in the early 20th century than the great Bohemian Franz Kafka (1883-1924)? Kafka's worked opened the door to questions about existence and freedom as his world lurched from one world war to the next (which mercifully he did not live to see). en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Franz_Kafka
Inspired by these questions of Kafka, contemporary composer Max Richter has recorded a great double album, "The Blue Notebook" (Deutsche Grammophon, 2018). To back up my images of the disassembled self in modernity, I have included the words of Kafka narrated by Tilda Swinton.
You may want to watch this short animation several times.
“What is real? How do you define 'real'? If you're talking about what you can feel, what you can smell, what you can taste and see, then 'real' is simply electrical signals interpreted by your brain.

Before Neo begon fighting Agent Smith, Agent Jones ordered a strike by Sentinels on Morpheus's hovership the Nebuchadnezzar.
Sentinels are squidlike killing machines in the real world that seek and destroy resistance hoverships or humans that survived the machine war.
Trinity, who's onboard the Nebuchadnezzar shouts at a seemingly lifeless Neo to wake up while a Sentinel is trying to breach the hull of the hovership...
This shot is based on the scene where the camera zooms in on Neo who is captured by agents and locked in a small room for interrogation...

I am back!!! Sorry that I haven't posted anything for a while. It had partially to do with the fact that I had problems logging on my account. I'm so glad that I came trough!!!
So this shot is based on the scene where Neo is guided by Tank, an operator on Morpheus's hovership, the Nebuchadnezzar, to the nearest exit out of the Matrix, being a phone in room 303, (yes, the same room where Trinity fought the police earlier)
When Neo finally reaches room 303 and opens the door he is shot point blank by Agent Smith who is already in the room and succumbs to his injuries...
