I think of Matrix as "The World" which is mind with all it's knowledge, memory, thoughts, emotions, concepts, words, ideas, beliefs, reactions etc. (what we usually call "real life").

Real-real life (Non-Matrix from the movie) = Truth, Enlightenment, etc.

No content of Matrix can show or transfer Truth, because Truth is not in The Matrix.

When you talk about Truth with words, or think about it with thoughts - these words and thoughts are just processes in the Matrix. You can learn about the Truth, you can study Truth, but learning and studying are just processes in the Matrix. There is no thought or experience that shows Truth. Any experience is a process in the Matrix. 

However, when you see a message on your computer screen that says "Neo, you're in the Matrix, follow the white rabbit" (=for example, when Leo is talking about Enlightenment or Reality), this could start the process of escaping the Matrix. The message itself is a process in the Matrix, but it can guide "You" (which is also a process in the Matrix) to a realization of Truth. Truth it is when "you" realize that there is no "you" and "not you", because everything (including you) are just objects in the Matrix. Matrix is a program, and everything (including you) is one single program. It is all one thing.

But Matrix is not the Reality. Reality cannot be experienced by "You in the Matrix". I don't know what Reality is.

Don't focus too much on movies. Movies are usually a product to entertain humanity. On your self actualization journey you especially have to watch inside you and this might not be as easy as watching movies. You will know what I am talking about at some point of your journey^^

Go watch Leo's newest video talking about awareness. Matrix is just a concept, build by thoughts. If you want to self-actualized, focus on mastering awareness, not thinking.
