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 young writer from Kerman travels to Tehran to get a permit for his book on ancient Persian poetry. He gets lost in the desert meets strange characters and encounters old poets. He finally emerges from dry underground canals into the Tehran metro system.
