A spiritual cadenza to The Matrix. They come of age. They seek the white. It takes them, the allure of cocaine riches, on a journey through a region of Ireland. The expression "fair play" is heard once or twice. The scenery is idyllic.

Not just a useful math space, a space for exploring a new world. A world parallel perhaps to our own (if infinite universes exist, do we have superpowers in some of them?) but linked beautifully to reality with KR's convincing performance in this delightful coming-of-age/finding-yourself film. The film left the world with an entire new theoretical paradigm of reality, and we are thankful enough just for that. But it steps beyond that into genuine entertainment. A thrill. An inspiration.
