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
The film is set at Mont Saint Michel in winter 1991. A woman named Sarah is trapped by a curse and each night turns into a creature that feeds a dragon with the dreams of sleeping men.
