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 group of troubled teenagers live in a reform school in Palermo, struggling with poverty and neglect. The film follows their daily lives and their relationships with a compassionate teacher who tries to help them.
