This week on The Cinemast Podcast, we start Anime Month! For the month of September, we are watching and reviewing some of Japan's most popular animated films.
To start, it's Ben's pick: GHOST IN THE SHELL, directed by Mamoru Oshii!
Synopsis: 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, is called in to investigate and stop the Puppetmaster.
Next week: Satoshi Kon's PERFECT BLUE!
