Ghost In The Shell is one of the most significant films in Japanese animation
history. See it now at the George Street Cinemas (playing in Sydney only).
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ghost In The Shell is set in the year 2029, when an internationally notorious
computer criminal has surfaced in Japan. Codenamed the 'Puppet Master' for his
ability to control the minds of innocent victims, this unique and mysterious
computer super-hacker is suspected of a multitude of offences; infringing
cybernetic ethics, terrorist acts, illegal data gathering and stock market
manipulation.
Section 9, Japan's elite secret service is called in to capture the elusive
criminal, only to discover a sinister and elaborate trail of evidence leading
back to Japan's own Foreign Affairs Ministry. They have manipulated the ultimate
political espionage tool: the computer virus. Ghost In The Shell is the new
animation benchmark, combining state of the art computer graphics with
traditional cell techniques. Mamoru Oshii's previous directorial credits include
the enormously popular Patlabor series.
