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 teenage girl named Qinghong lives with her parents in a remote inland town during the 1970s. Her father, a factory worker who was forced to move there from Shanghai, pressures her to study for exams so she can escape back to the big city. Qinghong secretly falls for a local boy, which creates conflict with her father's strict plans.
