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

What happens
L'obscura història de la cosina Montse (títol original en castellà: La oscura historia de la prima Montse) és una pel·lícula del 1977 dirigida per Jordi Cadena, basada en la novel·la homònima escrita per Juan Marsé. Ha estat doblada al català. Es tracta d'una pel·lícula molt característica de l'època en la qual Espanya iniciava la seva marxa democràtica. Hi ha referències de tipus polític en algun diàleg, citant-se a partits polítics avui dia desapareguts, com UCD. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
