• MIDNIGHT REWIND: Paprika (2006)
    Jun 17 2024
    “In a world of inhumane reality, dreams are the only humane sanctuary left.”

    We are back with another MIDNIGHT REWIND episode, a new segment on the show wherein we celebrate our favorite anime classics! Good, bad, or indifferent, this is just an excuse for us to celebrate Japanese animation.

    This week, we are discussing the 2006 anime classic from director Satoshi Kon: 'Paprika'.

    Adapted from Yasutaka Tsutsui’s 1993 novel of the same name and set in the distant future of 2012, a newly created device called the "DC Mini" allows the user to view people's dreams. 'Paprika' is about a battle between a dream terrorist who steals a device that allows others to share their dreams and causes nightmares for everyone. A research psychologist, Doctor Chiba Atsuko, attempts to enter the dream world and becomes Paprika, a dream detective alter-ego, to investigate these cases.
