The unit led by Kusanagi is suddenly confronted by "post-humans," beings with astonishing intelligence and physical abilities. How were they born and what is their purpose? Amidst a whirlwind of intrigue amongst the major powers, the "Ghost in the Shell" is once again organized.

<Director Fujii's comment> *Original text
When I received the offer, I was surprised that it was a mistake, but I was fortunate enough to accept the opportunity to direct the feature film version of this historic title. I am awed to have the opportunity to reconstruct the world that Director Kamiyama and Director Aramaki have painstakingly created into a two-hour film. We have created a dense and rewarding film that even those who have never seen the Ghost in the Shell series will enjoy. Please come and see it in the theater.
