The Matrix
(Warner Bros.)Directed by the Wachowskis, The Matrix is THE trans allegory film. Despite its story revolving around a cis, straight man, the film is rife with trans themes such as awakening, alienation, and choosing to take control of one’s destiny. Aside from the “red pill’ being an obvious metaphor for HRT, the central thesis of the film is that the heteronormative world is not as it seems. Notions of gender and sexuality are fabricated by society, much like other abstract concepts such as money, nationality, and the social order itself. When a person realizes that gender is nothing more than an agreed-upon social performance, the modern world starts feeling like a simulation. The Matrix takes this idea and makes it literal — reality-creating robots and all. While our reality (probably?) isn’t orchestrated by hyper-advanced AI from the future, the cognitive dissonance that comes with being expected to perform assigned gender roles makes one think that it may as well be.
