Batou to żyjący Cyborg. Całe jego ciało, nawet ręce i nogi są zrobione przez ludzi. Jedynie kawałki jego mózgu oraz wspomnienia pewnej kobiety są ludzkie. W erze gdzie granica między ludźmi a maszynami jest niejednoznaczna, Ludzie zapomnieli to że są ludźmi. "Duch" mężczyzny mimo wszelkich przeciwności szuka resztek człowieczeństwa...
Mamoru Oshii's landmark
Ghost in the Shell (1995) largely defined the cyberpunk genre and influenced the Matrix films in the U.S. The long-awaited sequel continues the adventures of Batou, Major Kusanagi's former assistant, who was left behind when she disappeared into the cyber-realm of the Net.
With his new human partner, Togusa, Batou investigates a series of bloody murders involving gynoids, robots with sexual functions. The case leads them to the headquarters of the Locus Solus company, where Batou uncovers the evil secret behind the creation of the gynoids. Innocence includes some staggeringly beautiful CG images, especially a parade depicting characters from Chinese mythology. Oshii contrasts this glittering beauty with a Blade Runner-esque dystopia. But even his skill as a director can't disguise the fact that the underdeveloped story and flat characters are far less interesting than the opulent visuals. --Charles Solomon
