GHOST IN THE SHELL (1995)

In a noirish future, a cybernetic agent races against time to find “The Puppet Master,” a shadowy entity behind a computer virus that can take over human hosts. A major influence on The Matrix, this animated cult classic gives serious consideration to consciousness, AI, and transhumanism without skimping on the cyberpunk action.
This screening is presented in conjunction with a Cinema Classics Seminar taught by Andrew Owen, Ph.D.
