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 ten year old boy named Cemil runs away from his abusive stepfather and ends up in Istanbul. He takes refuge with a gang of street children in Haydarpasa and the gang's leader tries to send him home while they struggle to survive.
