Synopsis

The Wachowskis, the brains behind the Matrix trilogy, masterminded this ideas-packed thriller. It's set in a parallel Britain, where a Guy Fawkes-inspired terrorist attempts to stir resistance against a dictatorship, and a young woman ends up in a strange friendship with the mysterious masked avenger. This is an unusual Hollywood action movie, with as much time given to the characters arguing out their beliefs as chases or racing against the clock.

Director/s

James McTeigue
