Anime Classic PAPRIKA Midnights This Weekend at The Tivoli

” …the Internet and dreams are similar. They’re areas where the repressed conscious mind escapes.”

PAPRIKA (2006) screens this Friday and Saturday nights (July 12th and 13th) at The Tivoli Theater as part of their ‘Reel Late at The Tivoli’ Midnight Series. A Facebook invite for the screening can be found HERE

PAPRIKA is a story of the inevitable corruption of brilliant new science and technology created for good, but is stolen and corrupted by those who do not truly understand its value. A device called a DC Mini that allows a person to enter into another person’s dreams has been stolen before its finished. Now those people responsible for this device must attempt to recover it before its possessor can use it in catastrophic ways. The device was originally intended to assist therapists in healing patients with psychiatric disorders. Now that its been stolen, it could be used to wield full control over the world of dreams. Chiba‚   psycho-therapist, must locate and remove this threat with the help of her dream-ego named Paprika before its too late and the worlds of reality and dreams collide and fall into complete chaos.
