The 3D catalogue: film cases on wooden shelves, with the cat sitting at the counter next to its greeting.

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

Struggle è un film del 2010 diretto da Bruce Stephen Locke. Darren, giovane ragazzo gay, arriva a Toronto per cominciare una nuova vita. A corto di soldi e senza un posto dove vivere, ha la fortuna di imbattersi in un gruppo di giovani prostituti gay con cui stringe amicizia. In seguito Darren si innamora di Steve, uno del gruppo che però ha già un fidanzato. Mentre cerca disperatamente di evitare di diventare lui stesso un prostituto, la solitudine e l'infatuazione di Darren per Steve alla fine lo mettono in una spirale discendente con circostanze tragiche.
