What if we merged cybernetic brains in our militarized, techno-capitalist hellscape? 😳

Im Jahre 2029 ist es normal, sich einzelne Körperteile durch künstliche Komponenten ersetzen zu lassen. Diese Bestandteile befähigen die Menschheit, nahezu alle Grenzen des Fleisches und des Geistes zu überwinden. Einige Menschen besitzen gar nur noch eine Biokapsel als Körper, genannt „Shell“, und lediglich ein Rest an ursprünglichen Gehirnzellen definieren den „Ghost“, der Identität und Persönlichkeit eines Individuums erhält. Dies macht die Bedrohung durch einen Computer-Hacker namens „Puppenspieler“ umso akuter, da er in der Lage ist, die Firewalls der „Ghosts“ zu überwinden und sie nach seinen Vorstellungen zu verändern. Majorin Motoko Kusanagi vom japanischen Geheimdienst Sektion 9 ist ebenfalls betroffen und macht sich auf die Jagd nach dem Cyber-Verbrecher.

6Was andere sagen
This cyberpunk classic was a huge influence on both The Matrix (1999) and The Fifth Element (1997), whilst in itself owing no small debt to Blade Runner (1982). Ghost in the Shell is an ode to technology, identity, collective vs. individual consciousness and boobs. Hardly surprising that it blew my mind when I was sixteen.
I shamefully admit that I don’t fully understand what was going on in this, it’s philosophy concerning the relationship between our soul, or ghost if you will, and our bodies (the shell of course), being conveyed through imagery and monologue, were a bit too mind-numbing for me. On surface level though, this film is gorgeous, and proud of itself too. Halfway through the story the film even took a five minute detour to show us its Blade Runner-esque cityscape. I find it interesting that the film seems to be extremely fascinated with the human body and keeps forcing us to study it. Also noticable is the way Major Kusanagi, to be played by Scarlett Johansson in the American remake, completely disregards the well-being of her body and sees them as simply tools like a wrench or a screwdriver, (tearing her own limbs off, being naked almost all the time etc.), as if she’s in a whole new, higher platform of existence unimaginable by us mere humans.Visually, Ghost in the Shell is on par with Evangelion and Akira, but you probably already know that. The climax looks like it's straight out of Bergman's Persona, and just like Bergman's film, multiple viewings are required.
