Sony Pictures Home Entertainment will release a Limited Edition 4K UHD SteelBook Edition of Satoshi Kon‘s Paprika early next year.
Paprika 4K UHD SteelBook Details and Release Date
In the acclaimed film the story revolves around Dr. Atsuko Chiba, who works as a scientist by day and, under the code name “Paprika,” is a dream detective at night. Atsuko and her colleagues are working on a device called the DC Mini, which is intended to help psychiatric patients, but in the wrong hands it could destroy people’s minds. When a prototype is stolen, Atsuko/Paprika springs into action to recover it before damage is done.
Paprika’s tale of diving into people’s dreams heavily influences Christopher Nolan’s Inception. The late Satoshi Kon is still highly revered for his tragically brief filmography which includes the Christmas film Toyko Godfathers and the classic thriller Perfect Blue.
