Ghost in the Shell (2017) Full Movie
In the near future, the vast majority of humans are augmented with
cybernetics, enhancing various traits like vision, strength, and
intelligence. Hanka Robotics, the world's leading developer of
augmentative technology, establishes a secret project to develop a
mechanical body, or "shell", that can integrate a human brain rather
than an AI. A young woman named Mira Killian,[10]
the sole survivor of a cyberterrorist attack, is chosen as the test
subject after her body is apparently damaged beyond repair. Over the
objections of her designer, Dr. Ouelet, Hanka CEO Cutter decides to
train Killian as a counter-terrorism operative.
A year later, Killian has attained the rank of Major in the anti-terrorist bureau Section 9, working alongside operatives Batou and Togusa under Chief Daisuke Aramaki. The team successfully thwarts a terrorist attack on a Hanka business conference, and Killian destroys a rogue mechanical geisha
after it murders a hostage. Killian, who has been experiencing
hallucinations that Ouelet dismisses as glitches, becomes increasingly
bothered by how little she remembers about her past. After learning that
the geisha was hacked by an unknown entity, known only as Kuze,
Killian breaks protocol and "dives" into its AI for answers. The entity
attempts a counter-hack, and Batou is forced to disconnect her. Using
the information she was able to gather, the two trace the hacker to a Yakuza
nightclub, where they are lured into a trap. The resulting explosion
destroys Batou's eyes, and leaves Killian's body severely damaged.
Cutter is enraged by Killian's actions, and threatens to have Section 9
shut down unless Aramaki keeps her in line.
Kuze tracks down Section 9's Hanka consultant, Dr. Dahlin, and kills
her. The team links her murder to the deaths of other senior company
researchers, and realize that Dr. Ouelet is the next target. Kuze takes
control of two sanitation workers and sends them to kill Ouelet. Batou,
now with cybernetic eyes, kills one of them while the repaired Killian
subdues the other. During interrogation, Kuze briefly speaks through the
surviving worker before compelling him to commit suicide. Togusa traces
the hack to a secret location, where the team discovers large numbers
of humans being mentally linked together as a makeshift signal network.
Killian is captured, and Kuze reveals that he is a failed Hanka test
subject from the same project that created Killian, otherwise known as
2571. He urges her to question her own memories before freeing her and
escaping.
