What happens
Psycho-Pass Providence is a 2023 anime cyberpunk crime film in the Psycho-Pass franchise. It was produced by Production I.G and directed by Naoyoshi Shiotani. The film was first revealed in August 2022 as part of a celebration of Psycho-Pass reaching its 10th anniversary with TOHO distributing. It stars the talents of Kana Hanazawa, Tomokazu Seki, Kenji Nojima, Shizuka Itō, Miyuki Sawashiro, Ayane Sakura among others. It serves as a prequel to the third season of Psycho-Pass and its sequel film, Psycho-Pass 3: First Inspector. The plot starts with a string of terrorist attacks across Japan by the paramilitary force known as the "Peacebreakers," which is investigated by Inspector Akane Tsunemori and her team of latent criminals and are aided by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs who have experience fighting against the Peacebreakers—namely her former companion Shinya Kogami who returns to Japan following his mercenary days explored in Psycho-Pass: Sinners of the System. Director Shiotani wanted to create a film that could be enjoyed by both a casual audience and returning Psycho-Pass fans. He worked carefully to appeal to returning audience by focusing on the now veteran character of Akane. Critical response to the film was generally positive with positive response given to Akane's development and team up with the missing Kogami from previous works though the themes led to mixed responses. The film grossed $640,825 in Japan. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
