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
This film is based on a true story about a doctor and his family in Nagasaki after the atomic bomb. It shows their struggles with radiation sickness and the loss of loved ones. The focus is on how they cope with death and find meaning in their suffering.
