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
This documentary shows Iran in 1971 through Claude Lelouch's eye for beauty and detail. It captures the country's mix of old traditions and new ways, from religious customs to modern fashion and from ancient art to oil wealth.
