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 Soviet animated short from 1988 reimagines the classic Russian folktale of a runaway bun. It is aimed at adults and reflects the mood of the late perestroika era. The film follows the bun's encounters in a grim and absurd world.
