PURCHASE THE DVD: Nirvana (1997)

Set in a strange future, this 1997 Sci-Fi tells of a hapless computer game designer who realizes at the last minute that his creation is not what he intended.

Three days before release of his game by a huge Japanese company, Jimi, already distraught because his girlfriend has disappeared without a trace, discovers that his game has become infected with a virus which has given a consciousness to the main character of the game, who begs Jimi to end his useless existence, so he is not being killed over and over again.

Nagged by all these problems, Jimi sets out to find people who can help him discover what happened to his girlfriend, and also to delete the game from the company's mainframe before it is released.

Like many Sci-Fi offerings (think The Matrix), this one can be a little hard to follow, but it's definitely well done and most Sci-Fi lovers will enjoy it. It was an Italian/French co-production, but the DVD has an English sound track.
