The 3D catalogue: film cases on wooden shelves, with the cat sitting at the counter next to its greeting.

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.

What happens

Namma Basava is a 2005 Indian Kannada-language romantic action film directed by Veera Shankar in his Kannada debut. It stars Puneeth Rajkumar and Gowri Munjal (in her debut) in the lead roles. Avinash, Sudha Rani, Kota Srinivasa Rao, Riyaz Khan and M. N. Lakshmi Devi feature in supporting roles. Gurukiran scored music for the film's background and soundtrack. Although the film saw an average performance commercially, it completed a 100-day run in 25 centers across Karnataka. While critics gave it mixed reviews, the film's soundtrack album was generally received well. Hindustan Times rated its soundtrack album the fifth best in Kannada films of 2005.
