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 band of lazy troublemakers living in the Tokyo slums stir up mischief, from getting drunk and scamming a dead money-lender to fighting with cruel landlords. They rally together to fund a dowry for a young woman's wedding through risky gambling.
