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
After the Battle of Karbala, the surviving family members of Imam Hussein are marched by their captors to the courts of Kufa and then to the palace of Yazid in Syria. The film follows their harsh journey and the events they endure.
