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
An old man in a small Calabrian village makes a final gift that changes the daily life of the village. The film observes the simple routines of the villagers and the quiet events that unfold around them.

What happens
Il Dono est un film italien réalisé par Michelangelo Frammartino et sorti en 2003. Le film suit le quotidien d’un petit village de Calabre et de ses habitants. Peu de choses : un vieil homme et sa maison, une jeune femme et son vélo, un téléphone portable, une image vaguement pornographique sur laquelle on spécule… Le vieil homme va faire un dernier "don" qui va bouleverser la vie quotidienne du village.
