The Island (2005)

This is a fantastic metaphysical movie, showing the awakening process right through from being in a deceived, conforming state, to realizing that what was considered to be life was not really life at all. A society of men and women, who are deceived from birth, need to discover their true identity in this sci-fi action film. The main characters are joined in a relationship of purpose, in which they have to follow their prompts and become highly intuitive and determined to overcome the ego’s attempts at stopping them from exposing the darkness. It shows the ego’s temptation to go off and build a safe haven, and the Spirit’s call to extend love to everyone by going deep into the mind and flipping the master switch that dismantles the ego’s illusion entirely, allowing the light to shine through and free everyone. As everyone opens up to the light, even those who may have seemed to be the enemy join in the celebration of innocence and freedom.
