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.

What happens

Hrudaya Sangama () is a 1972 Indian Kannada language drama film directed by Rashi Brothers (Shivaram and S. Ramanathan) and produced by MJM Productions. It starred Rajkumar and Bharathi. The film was part black-and-white and part color, thus making it a partial color film. Vijaya Bhaskar scored the music and the story was written by H. N. Muddukrishna.The movie saw a theatrical run of 18 weeks. The film, upon release, was critically acclaimed and went on to win the Karnataka State Award for fourth best film for the year 1972–73. The 2024 movie Krishnam Pranaya Sakhi borrows plot elements from this movie. Rajkumar played dual role in a small portion of the movie where the second character appears only for three minutes on-screen in an important plot twist. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
