Ra.One (2011)
Yes, angels do exist.
When the titular antagonist of an action game takes on physical form, it's up to the game's less powerful protagonist to save the world.
In Ra.One, consciousness is carried by machines — a plane of “game‑world invasion”. The story fights on E8/E9 of the E0–E14 reality ladder, compressing technology, ai, power, family, control.
