Master anime creator Satoshi Kon's 2006 work of psychological science-fiction PAPRIKA follows Dr. Atsuko Chiba, who works as a scientist by day and, under the code name "Paprika," is a so-called "dream detective at night." Atsuko and her colleagues are working on a device called the DC Mini, which is intended to help psychiatric patients, but in the wrong hands it could destroy people's minds. When a prototype is stolen, Atsuko/Paprika springs into action to recover it before damage is done.

"Following its own brand of logic, PAPRIKA is an eye-opening mind trip that is difficult to follow but never fails to dazzle." (Rotten Tomatoes)

"As a showcase of the limitless power of the imagination, PAPRIKA never fails to delight the eye and engage the mind. We are never sure exactly whom we should be cheering for, or even if we're rooting for real characters or their avatars." (Toronto Star)
