Ghost in the Shell (1996)

Japan | 85 minutes | NR | Blu-Ray | Dir. Mamoru Oshii

In the year 2029, the barriers of our world have been broken down by the net and by cybernetics, but this brings new vulnerability to humans in the form of brain-hacking. When a highly-wanted hacker known as 'The Puppetmaster' begins involving them in politics, Section 9, a group of cybernetically enhanced cops, are called in to investigate and stop the Puppetmaster.

"'Ghost in the Shell' is an ultra-violent, rocket-paced film-over and out in just over 80 minutes - but it's a poetic one, too," - Noel Murray, The Dissolve
