About this movie

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. 2006 Madhouse, Inc. and Sony Pictures Entertainment (Japan) Inc.

Although, the audio is in Japanese (with English subtitles) despite the description stating English audio. This may be undesirable because the animation is just breathtaking and you won't want to miss any while reading.
