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

Director Alexander Sokurov films Russian soldiers stationed at a remote border post in Tajikistan in the 1990s. The documentary focuses on their long stretches of inactivity, capturing the eerie stillness between rare moments of conflict.
