When Dan and Corinna met for the first time in 2015, by the end of the night, their conversation led to dreaming of putting on underground movie screenings. Spiral Cinema is that dream come to life: a series of movies that portray spiritual or metaphysical journeys.

In honor of Dan’s final Escaping the Matrix group, we’ll be showing the movie that inspired it.

What more can be said about The Matrix? A movie so completely absorbed by the culture that its influence is inextricable and the relevance to today even stronger. It’s a movie that gets better with time and that strangely reveals more truth the further we “progress” as a civilization. So, which will it be: the red pill or the blue pill?

There will be time afterwards to share reflections about the movie.

This is a free screening with a limited number of seats. RSVP required.
