Released in 1982, the original film has become an emblem of science fiction cinema, generating a huge fan base. The plot of that film focused on Kevin Flynn (Jeff Bridges), a video game programmer working for the company Encom who is deceived by an executive, Ed Dillinger (David Warner), who stole the authorship of his work.
Alan Bradley and Lora Baines, two current Encom employees who have also been manipulated by Dillinger, ask Flynn for help in accessing data from the company's computer system and giving them free rein to act.
The programmer thus has the opportunity to obtain proof that the video games are his or her creation and agrees to collaborate. When Flynn has managed to breach the building's security and is about to access the central process control to obtain all the information he wants, he is digitally captured by the system. Flynn is now an intruder in a digital world ruled by the computer.
