Mamoru Oshii's legendary anime film returns in a stunning new edition remastered by Oshii himself. All the original animations are reproduced with the latest digital film and animation technologies, including 3D-CGI. 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. The pursuit will call into question what makes a human and what is the Puppetmaster in a world where the distinction between human and machine is increasingly blurry.
