Paprika + Tokyo Godfathers

DOUBLE FEATURE! Japanese master Satoshi Kon’s hugely influential animated masterworks are celebrated on the silver screen.

PAPRIKA is a mind-boggling sci-fi fantasy wherein a group of brilliant scientists have developed a form of psychotherapy with the invention of a machine which enables a person to enter another’s dreams. When the device is stolen by a "dream terrorist," it is up Atsuko Chiba, a scientist under the code name Paprika, to track down the apparatus and save the world from madness.

Heartbreaking, hilarious and highly original, TOKYO GODFATHERS is a humanist masterpiece. In modern-day Tokyo, three people's lives are changed forever when they discover a baby girl on Christmas Eve. As the New Year fast approaches, these outsiders band together to solve the mystery of the abandoned child and the fate of her parents. Along the way, they must confront their own haunted pasts as they learn to embrace a future together.
