The Film ‘A Glitch in the Matrix’ Uses Philip K. Dick to Learn If Humanity is Just a Figment of Digital Simulation
A Glitch in the Matrix by director Rodney Ascher (previously) is a documentary that questions whether or not the whole of humanity is just a figment of digital simulation that's being controlled by a single omnipresent entity. The film also uses a famous speech by Philip K. Dick to enunciate the theme even further.
What if we are living in a simulation, and the world as we know it is not real? To tackle this mind-bending idea, acclaimed filmmaker Rodney Asher (ROOM 237, THE NIGHTMARE) uses a noted speech from Philip K. Dick to dive down the rabbit hole of science, philosophy, and conspiracy theory.
