About A Glitch in the Matrix
Are we in fact living in a simulation? This is the question postulated, wrestled with, and ultimately argued for through archival footage, compelling interviews with real people shrouded in digital avatars, and a collection of cases from some of our most iconoclastic figures in contemporary culture.
Directed by Rodney Ascher, A Glitch in the Matrix leans on a strong ensemble — Nick Bostrom, Joshua Cooke, Erik Davis — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about documentary titles of 2021.
