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
A BBC film crew interviews a Catholic family in Belfast when a child they know is hit by a plastic bullet. Back in London, the producer and researcher struggle with how to edit the footage and what their responsibility is to the family.
