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
This documentary follows South Korean day laborers on construction sites who work long hours every day. The director starts by filming her own father and shows the struggle for dignity among people left out of the country's economic boom.

What happens
Nogada (노가다) est un film sud-coréen réalisé par Kim Mi-re, sorti en 2005. « Nogada » est un terme d'argot coréen emprunté au japonais signifiant littéralement esclaves et qui désigne ici les travailleurs journaliers du bâtiment. Ce film décrit la vie quotidienne de ces ouvriers qui travaillent de dix à douze heures par jour, sept jours par semaine. Kim Mi-re commence par suivre son père, lui-même un Nogada et illustre la lutte pour la survie et la dignité de ces exclus de la réussite économique de la Corée du Sud. Elle suit en parallèle les luttes des journaliers au Japon. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
