Jimi (Lambert) is a computer programmer who has just finished a new game, called Nirvana. But he is shocked to discover that Solo, the protagonist of Nirvana, has developed self-awareness. Solo tires of being forced to enact the same scenario again and again, and asks Jimi to shut the game down before it is made available to the public and has to live his hellish existence forever. But in order to do so, Jimi will have to recruit the services of a mysterious hacker to get into his company's files, where Nirvana is stored. In the mold of Cronenberg's EXISTENZ, NIRVANA was directed by Gabriele Salvatores (I'M NOT SCARED, MEDITERRANEO). [More]

  • In the riveting style of BLADE RUNNER, NIRVANA is the futuristic thriller starring Christopher Lambert (HIGHLANDER franchise, MORTAL KOMBAT) as a video game designer whose latest creation becomes dangerously real! At a giant multinational corporation, Jimi (Lambert) is a successful programmer excited about the launch of his realistic new game, Nirvana. But just days before it hits the streets, he learns that the game's main character has developed the ability to think and act on his own. As this acclaimed story unfolds, Jimi must locate a hacker who can crack the company's impenetrable data banks and destroy the program before it's released!
