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 well-educated man moves into a villa as a subtenant. He finds himself sharing the house with three women from different generations. Their interactions grow increasingly absurd and comic.

What happens
Sublokator (The Subtenant) is a Polish comedy film from 1966 directed by Janusz Majewski, based on his own screenplay. The film tells the story of the titular subtenant, a member of the intelligentsia class (played by Jan Machulski), who finds himself trapped in a villa with three women representing different generations (Barbara Ludwiżanka, Katarzyna Łaniewska, Magdalena Zawadzka). Sublokator was Majewski's full-length debut, produced under the Kamera Film Production Team. While making the film, Majewski drew inspiration from the grotesque style of Witold Gombrowicz, Bruno Schulz, and Franz Kafka. The debut was widely acclaimed, receiving numerous awards, including the International Federation of Film Critics Award at the International Filmfestival Mannheim-Heidelberg, with particular praise for Ludwiżanka's performance.
