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
Three stories of revolutionaries in Iran are shown. A teacher's daughter is arrested and tortured, and he is killed for not giving information. A young revolutionary named Mehdi is tortured and executed after condemning the royal system in court. Ayatollah Taleghani is tortured in prison and later released with other political prisoners.
