Groundbreaking animator
Satoshi Kon (whose credits include
Tokyo Godfathers,
Millennium Actress, and
Perfect Blue) directed this visually spectacular adaptation of a
science fiction novel by
Yatsutaka Tsutsui.
Atsuko is a psychiatrist who uses advanced technology to study the human mind.
Atsuko has developed a machine that will allow her to enter the dreams of her patients and study their psyches from the inside.
Atsuko also does double duty as
Paprika, a high-tech detective who uses this new innovation to find out the truth about what the people she's trailing really think. However,
Atsuko falls victim to a thief who steals the one-of-a-kind machine, and
Paprika sets out to find it as a wave of psychological instability tears through the city.
Paprika received its world premiere at the
2006 Venice Film Festival.
