Paprika

From acclaimed director Satoshi Kon (Perfect Blue, Millennium Actress) and Madhouse Studios (Vampire Hunter D: Bloodlust, Black Lagoon) comes this psychological thriller where the line between dreams and reality becomes blurred! In the very near future, "PT," a revolutionary new psychotherapy treatment, has been invented which utilizes a device called the "DC Mini" that allows users to view people's dreams, exploring their unconscious thoughts. But, when a prototype of the DC Mini is stolen, the antagonist uses the device to bring his victims into a state in which dreams and reality are indistinguishable, driving them to madness or death! Now, PT research specialist Dr. Atsuko Chiba must enter the dream world under the guise of her "dream detective" alter-ego Paprika to search for clues and seek out those responsible for the theft before the rampant nightmares plaguing the sleeping world become reality!
