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 manipulative teenage girl runs away from home and moves in with her gay half brother, stirring up chaos in his quiet life. She seduces his boyfriend, gets pregnant, and then the boyfriend mysteriously dies. The story follows the fallout as the family tries to sort out lies, secrets, and shifting relationships.
