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

An elderly woman from Nepal's Kusunda community speaks about her lost language and culture. She recalls how her people abandoned their native tongue and married into other villages. The film is her personal memoir and a record of her community's struggle to preserve their identity.
