Cypher / suy-fuh/ (also cipher) person or thing with no importance – v.

CYPHER is a futuristic thriller the likes of which you’ve never seen. Starring Lucy Liu (“Charlie’s Angels”) and Jeremy Northam (“Gosford Park”, “The Singing Detective”) the film is directed by Vincenzo Natali, the award winning director of “Cube”.

Morgan (Northam) is an ordinary guy - an out of work accountant who is stuck in an unhappy life. Seeking an escape he joins a multinational corporation to become a company spy. While on assignment he meets an elusive woman (Liu) and his world becomes a quagmire where the lines are blurred, where charades and dreams become truths.

“If The Matrix Reloaded left you wanting a seriously clever mind melt, then Cypher is the film you've been waiting for ...one of this year's smartest thrillers."
