Paprika

Introduced by Depot Marketing Manager Bob Prosser

Part of Surrealism at Depot

Dr. Atsuko Chiba works as a scientist by day and, under the code name "Paprika," is a 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.

'In Paprika, a gorgeous riot of future-shock ideas and brightly animated imagery, the doors of perception never close' - Manohla Dargis, New York Times
