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
During a short summer night in the Finnish countryside, a group of people experience love, longing and loss. The film follows several characters through this fleeting moment, capturing their quiet dramas and emotional undercurrents.
