Movie-Paprika

This 2007 animated (anime) feature from Japan is frea-KY. A little mind-blowing and more than a little conceptual.

Imagine a device that could tap into dreams, to be used for therapeutic reasons. But the machine is actually used to manipulate dreams, and merges people's dreams together...and makes dreams start to invade reality.

Paprika is a little bit super-hero movie, a little bit psychotic LSD trip, a little bit grand fantasy, and a lot great animation. I still am not sure what I think about it entirely, but it is certainly unique and captures the world it portrays wonderfully.
