The analysis focuses upon The Matrix with reference to Heidegger’s understanding of technology and art. Such a correlation of film (art) and philosophy is established as a kind of neighborhood relationship. Due to the immediate approach through image, word symbol The Matrix demonstrates the thematic congeniality with the attitudes dealt with in the text The Question Concerning Technology. The film, being a product of specific technology is, at the same time, inherently poetic. It comprises the potential for the genuine revealing of technological reality and delineates the saving power function of art in the age of technology.
