A Scanner Darkly (2006) - Sci-Fi Animated feature film
I'm going to add a new story, in Donna's point of view.
(Original) ... As part of the rehabilitation program at New Path, Arctor is renamed Bruce and put through psychological reconditioning treatments. Arctor has serious brain damage from his withdrawal from Substance D. To continue his rehabilitation, New Path sends Arctor to work at an isolated New Path corn farming prison.
On the other hand, Donna, using the name Audrey, has a conversation with some agent revealing the fact that New Path is responsible for the manufacture and distribution of Substance D.
(New Story) Donna felt sorry for Arctor for being sacrifised himself, his well-being and his life by the government (or the Polica force). So she pretended as a psychologist by wearing a high-tech scramble suit and got into the New Path corn farming prison where Arctor is.
Due to his previous drug addiction, hirelationship with Donna and family history, he was suffereing with Borderline personality disorder (BPD) and Donna wanted to help him out - to get it through and to find the evidence for Police so he can get out of there, at least.
(Original) Arctor spots rows of blue flowers (the source of Substance D) hidden between rows of corn in a farm. Arctor hides one of the blue flowers in his boot, so that when he returns to the New Path clinic during Thanksgiving he can give it to...
(New Ending) ... Donna, who is an undercover police agent but, also, a friend.

Hi Yuna, you saw A Scanner Darkly??  ̄□ ̄
Quite a movie, huh? Not sure if I like the rotoscopic effect (live action made to look like animation), but it's a powerful storyline.
It's interesting that in the novel by Philip K Dick the point of view shifts around and we do get Donna's POV (can borrow it from me if you like so you can have quick sqizz at those sections).
I talked about this and other PKD based movie's at a Pop Culture conference in San Francisco in April - may show you guys some stuff about this after the break.
Nice your idea bout Donna saving Arctor - she does kinda love him in both film and movie but uses him anyway. PKD had a very cynical view of human relations ^_^;; you might have noticed in Blade Runner.
Look forward to seeing this take shape. ^-^
