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

The Tenth Bullet Scar (originaltittel: Di shi ge dan kong) er et kinesisk kriminaldrama fra 1980 regissert av Ai Shui. Filmen handler om en politisjef som må sende sin egen sønn i fengsel når det oppdages at han var involvert i en eksplosjon på en bro. Faren finner ut at sønnens egen tante hadde rekruttert ham til en radial gruppe med opphav i Kulturrevolusjonen og at dette hadde skjedd mens tanten hadde omsorgen for ham mens foreldrene var under politisk etterforskning. Ledende roller spilles av Cao Huiqu, Chen Lizhong og Tong Yang. Den ble tildelt prisen for fremragende film ved Huabiao Awards (delt med flere filmer). (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
