Paprika

Atsuko is a psychiatrist who uses advanced technology to study the human mind, developing a machine that will allow her to enter the dreams of her patients and study their psyches from the inside. Atsuko also doubles as Paprika, a high-tech detective who uses this new innovation to find truth behind the people she's trailing. However, Atsuko falls victim to a thief that steals the one-of-a-kind machine, and Paprika sets out to find it as a wave of psychological instability tears through the city.
