What happened after Matrix Revolutions?

As Matrix fans know, Neo and Trinity sacrificed themselves in the third Matrix movie in order to stop the Machines from completely destroying Zion. In Matrix Revolutions, we see how much Neo and Trinity’s sacrifice paid off for people outside of the Matrix.

Humans and some of the Machines are now able to work together. This proves pivotal in the journey of rescuing both Neo and Trinity from the Matrix.

When the real world meets the Matrix

After Neo and Trinity sacrificed themselves to save Zion and end the war with the Machines, they were essentially healed by the Machines and put back into the Matrix.

As it turns out, the Matrix realized having Neo and Trinity in the system worked to the betterment of the system; yet only if they were apart from one another.

Matrix Resurrections is a story about choices and how, at one point or another, we must either decide to take the red pill and follow our own path; or, we can choose the blue pill, mindlessly feed the system, and be just another human battery hooked up to the system.

Parallels to today’s world

What makes Matrix Resurrections such a moving and pivotal story is the relevance it has to today’s world. In the film, Neo is repeatedly fed blue pills by the Matrix in order to keep the system going.
