The 3D catalogue: film cases on wooden shelves, with the cat sitting at the counter next to its greeting.

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.

Azad (transl. Independent) is a 2000 Indian Telugu-language patriotic action film written and directed by Thirupathisamy, and produced by C. Ashwini Dutt under Vyjayanthi Movies. It stars Nagarjuna Akkineni in the titular role alongside Shilpa Shetty and Soundarya, while the music was composed by Mani Sharma. The film completed a 100-day run in 4 centres and was a commercial success. The film won four Nandi Awards and was remade in Kannada as Bhagath (2004) and loosely remade in Tamil as Velayudham (2011). Besides a Tamil remake, the film was dubbed into Tamil as Kurukshetram.
