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 brother and sister live in isolation after witnessing their parents' sudden death. The brother writes songs for his sister who lost her voice, and she draws fairy tales for his nightmares. When the sister dies in an accident, the brother falls into a death-like sleep. Years later, a girl who looks exactly like his dead sister appears before him.
