What is The Matrix Resurrection about?
The first minutes of the film are a reference to the opening scene of the first part of the film. Agents are chasing Trinity. Two new characters are watching this: Seka and Bugs.

This is where one of the agents comes in. But this is Morpheus. Bugs brings him out of the matrix, their task is to find Neo.
Neo (Thomas Anderson in the world) is currently working as a game designer. He does not remember his heroic past. At one time, he created the successful video game The Matrix. Here we learn that everything that happened in the first three films was just a game that Anderson created. The new owners of the company want to restart the franchise, but Neo is reluctant to agree to this. Now he suffers from visions and nightmares about the unreality of the world. The therapist prescribes blue pills called Ontolofloxin for him.
In a coffee shop, he meets a woman named Tiffany. It’s actually Trinity. In ordinary life, she is married and has two children. Like Anderson, she remembers nothing of life outside of the Matrix, but she is drawn to Thomas. They agreed to meet again.
Suddenly, Anderson’s company announces a fire alarm. Morpheus distracts Thomas. He offers him one of two pills to get out of the Matrix. Thomas refuses. He goes on a new date with Trinity-Tiffany. The man’s anxiety intensifies.
In the same cafe, he meets a woman named Bugs, who tells Thomas his story. Neo follows the white rabbit on her shoulder. So Anderson gets on the ship Mnemosyne. Bugs, already known to us, is here for the captain. She tells him the further history of Zion and Neo. It turns out that the city was destroyed. Now people who are disconnected from the “Matrix” live in another city – Io. During this time, Niobe became the general of the human army, she also controls the city of Io.
