The catalogue in 3D
The film shelves have a room of their own that you can walk around in. The cat behind the counter is the AI Catbot, and they pick real films from the same catalogue when you tell them what you feel like watching. Nothing is for sale, here or in there. Go in from here and this film is already out on the counter, with more like it waiting on the shelf next to it.
How it feels
A group of nuns in a Spanish convent raise a baby girl left at their doorstep. The story follows her growth into a young woman who must decide between the religious life she was raised in and the outside world.

What happens

It is one of several films based on the 1911 Spanish play Canción de cuna by María and Gregorio Martínez Sierra. The play was translated into English in the 1920s by John Garrett Underhill.
