JOHNNY MNEMONIC
THE FUTURE’S MOST WANTED FUGITIVE

Johnny’s a slick young twenty first century hustler with a lot of upstairs – and all of it’s about to blow. A wetwired courier with a 320 gigabyte data storage chip embedded in his brain, he smuggles information for a living, and he isn’t particular where it comes from. But with this latest job, his lucrative memory bank has given way to a major headache. The information he’s carrying is hot – stolen from a powerful company that wants it back in the worst possible The download code is missing his employers are dead, and there’s nothing between him and an army of high tech Yakuza thugs – nothing but his street-smarts and a beautiful girl with a bad attitude and a hardwired taste for mayhem.
