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 man returns to his small hometown in New Brunswick and reconnects with his troubled brother. Their relationship is tested by past traumas and the pressures of their close-knit community.

It was the first French-language feature film funded by Film New Brunswick, the provincial film development agency. The film had its theatrical premiere at the 1999 Toronto International Film Festival, before going into general theatrical release in early 2000. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
