Description
An urban tribe of technopagans perform their ecstatic rites in Tragos, a Virtual Reality realm. One night their leader, Bella Luxor, overamps the program and emerges blind while her sister, Vivika, does not regain consciousness, but remains active in the VR world as a disembodied entity. Bob Logos, a fundamentalist Christian attorney, views Vivika's mysterious death as the workings of a satanic suicide cult and pays a mole to infiltrate the cult and bring about their demise.
Editorial Reviews
An audacious and chilling parable that questions misdirected over-reliance on gadgets and God. The parallels between Alli's futuristic tale and the assault on many basic contemporary liberties seems too close for comfort. TRAGOS is an intellectual adrenaline rush of hypnotic strength and emotional depth.
Phil Hall Read the full review
The story might sound like an opportunity for countercultural self-congratulation, with heroic pagans fighting off an oppressive church. Yet the prosecutor, though misguided, is one of the most sympathetic characters in the movie, and the priest who regularly gives him advice offers nothing but wisdom.
