Plot Summary:

After nine years, acclaimed writer/director Mamoru Oshii follows up his cult hit ''Ghost in the Shell''�one of the biggest anim� successes of all time�with the long-awaited sequel ''Ghost in the Shell 2: Innocence''. It is the year 2032 and the line between humans and machines has been blurred almost beyond distinction. Humans have forgotten that they are human and those that are left coexist with cyborgs (human spirits inhabiting entirely mechanized bodies) and dolls (robots with no human elements at all). Batou is a cyborg. His body is artificial: the only remnants left of his humanity are traces of his brain�and the memories of a woman called The Major. A detective for the government's covert anti-terrorist unit, Public Security Section 9, Batou is investigating the case of a gynoid�a hyper-realistic female robot created specifically for sexual companionship�who malfunctions and slaughters her owner. As Batou delves deeper into the investigation, questions arise about humanity's need to immortalize its image in dolls. The answers to those questions lead to the shocking truth behind the crime...and quite possibly the very meaning of life.
