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 legendary Tamil epic follows the story of Kovalan and Kannagi, a devoted couple whose lives take a tragic turn due to betrayal and injustice. The film adapts the ancient tale of love, loss, and a queen's curse that brings destruction.
