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

What happens
Hihintayin Kita sa Langit (transl. I'll Wait for You in Heaven) is a 1991 Filipino romantic drama film directed by Carlos Siguion-Reyna. The screenplay, written by Raquel Villavicencio, is loosely adapted from English novelist-poet Emily Brontë's 1847 novel Wuthering Heights and transposes the plot of the said novel from the moors of West Yorkshire to the beaches and seaside cliffs (shot in Batanes). The film stars then-real-life romantic partners, Richard Gomez and Dawn Zulueta, in their first film together as leads, modeled on the characters Heathcliff and Catherine. It co-stars Michael de Mesa, Eric Quizon, Jackie Lou Blanco, Jose Mari Avellana, and Vangie Labalan. Produced by Reyna Films, as their first film offering, and distributed by Bonanza Films, it was theatrically released on June 13, 1991. The film was digitally restored and remastered in 4K resolution by ABS-CBN Film Restoration and Central Digital Lab and subsequently released in select theaters on February 27, 2017.
