Time for the greatest show on earth!
If you think you've seen it all in science fiction, Paprika will leave you utterly mistaken. Directed by Satoshi Kon, this film blurs the line between dreams and reality with an effect that is both acutely exhilarating and distressing. Dr. Atsuko Chiba, a psychiatrist, uses a device known as the DC Mini to intrude upon patients' dreams in her alternate form, aka Paprika. However, when the technology gets into the wrong hands, reality begins to disintegrate.
Dir. Satoshi Kon (2006); Japan; Japanese; 90 min
