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 bored and lonely man stumbles into a world of international espionage after a chance encounter. He uses his natural knack for martial arts to navigate a series of chases and fights across different countries.
