The sky is grey, something seems off. I look further down the beach and I see something that looks like a body. As I am running closer and closer, the shape begins to take form.

My ears were satisfied with the click of the gun confirming it is in. Only one shotgun was loaded at one time for student safety.

When Dory asks for help, they hushed her, making her remember another memory of her childhood where she was swimming around, trying to look for her parents, Jenny and Charlie, but a group of crabs hushed her.

Oshii Mamoru’s Ghost in the Shell explores philosophical issues between the body, soul, and technology. While an aesthetically pleasing product of the science fiction genre, the film remarkably blends technology with religion and spirituality. It follows Kusanagi, a cyborg assassin working for Section 9, who, along with her team, is on a hunt to track down an anonymous hacker known as the Puppet Master. He is able to implant false memories in human bodies and, as a result, Kusanagi struggles…
