Sci-Fi Sunday at Space Place
Inject your Sunday evening with some classic sci-fi at Carter Observatory.
Overview
What better place to enjoy some Sunday science-fiction than at the Carter Observatory's Space Place. Take your sci-fi, anime loving friend to the showing of acclaimed 1995 anime film Ghost in the Shell (no, not the Scarlett Johansson one).
Adapted from the 1989 manga series written and illustrated by Masamune Shirow, Ghost in the Shell is a detective noir story set in a cyberpunk world where cyborgs are routine and minds can be hacked. Cyborg undercover agent Major Motoko Kusang is on the trail of a rogue hacking virus, mysteriously known as the Puppet Master, a figure capable of modifying the minds of human-cyborg hybrids. Motoko Kusang's journey to stop this man leaves her questioning her own humanity and the existence of her own 'ghost' or her 'soul'.
Pull up a chair at Space Place, sit back, relax and immerse yourself in a world not too distant from now... that is 2029. Doors open at 6.30pm.
