A "fan theory" about the science fiction franchise "The Matrix" (or strictly speaking the three original films).
It does make sense to see Zion as part of the matrix. After all, Neo was really a control program (albeit a rogue one)! So maybe *everything* is an illusion? This also ties in with the Buddhist notion that everything except nirvana is samsara, including the "good" paradise worlds of the gods. And "The Matrix" is clearly inspired by Buddhism. You can get the same result relating it to Advaita Vedanta.
I don´t think this is the "real" meaning of the movies, but it´s smart fan fiction. Maybe next time?
