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 the Chinese Civil War, two communist women are held in a nationalist-run concentration camp. The guards brutally interrogate them to reveal their leaders and hideouts. The story is based on the screenwriter's own experience in the camp.

What happens
Shangrao Concentration Camp (originaltittel: Shangrao ji zhong ying) er et kinesisk krigsdrama fra 1951 regissert av Sha Meng. Filmen handler om om to kvinner fra den kommunistiske siden som sitter i en fangeleir drevet av nasjonalistene. Der opplever de brutal behandling av fangevoktere som forsøker å tvinge dem til å røpe identiteten til deres ledere og deres lokasjon. Handlingen er for en stor del basert på manusforfatterens egne opplevelser mens han satt i Shangrao konsentrasjonsleir. Filmen ble en stor publikumssuksess i Kina. Den ble tildelt prisen for fremragende film ved den første Huabiao Awards i 1957 (delt med flere filmer). Filmen er i sort-hvitt. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
