Plato's Allegory of the Cave


This Theory is testing that how human‘s natural instincts are.In the cave, Plate likes people untutored in the Theory of Forms to prisoners chained in a cave, in such a way that they can only look into the shadows appearing on the cave wall and unable to turn their heads. Behind them burns a fire, between the fire and the prisoners there is a parapet that along which puppeteers can walk through. So, when puppeteers hold up those puppets that cast shadows on the wall of the cave, the prisoners are cannot know that which is real or fake because they see and hear are shadows and echoes cast by objects that they do not see only. They also didn't realize that they have three dimensional bodies.

The Matrix
It showed that a lot people always cannot difference which is true or fake when sleeping. Some times, people will think that he/she is go into another world or dream a future. After they awake, they will confuse that is a dream or is a true. Most of time, those things or dreams always happen if they still remember what happen when they are awake.

The Animatrix that had shown by lecturer is related the theories of above. 
It starting with a kids is falling down from sky to floor in a school. He awake and talk to unknown, someone is replied "There is some fiction in your truth, and some truth in your fiction". Whole anime process is shown dreamt a things, character still remember of it. He sensitive and scare to anything in his world, because of those agents, he has go to rooftop of school and he realize that scene is same with his dream. What he had dreamt is happened in his life in the end. I found that this animatrix's messenges
is related to Plato's Allegory of the cave, it make people confusing to their mind and continuing their own imagining. Here telling us that think out of the box and use different angle to see through everythings.
