What happens

Ghost in the Shell: The New Movie (Japanese: 攻殻機動隊 新劇場版, Hepburn: Kōkaku Kidōtai Shin Gekijō-ban; lit. 'Mobile Armored Riot Police: The New Movie Edition'), also known in Japan as Ghost in the Shell: The Movie or New Ghost in the Shell, is a 2015 Japanese animated science fiction film directed by Kazuya Nomura. A continuation of the Ghost in the Shell: Arise original video animation, The New Movie is the first film in the series since Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex – Solid State Society in 2006, and the first theatrical film since Ghost in the Shell 2: Innocence in 2004. The film is a continuation of Pyrophoric Cult (the final episode of Arise), and ties up loose ends from that arc. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
