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.

How it feels

A man named Raouf navigates a single day in Cairo. He races against time, tries to get ahead, and vies for control with others especially his fiancee Nadia. His memories and moments of quiet reflection mix into his busy routine.

What happens

نهار وليل (الإنجليزية: Nahar we leil) هو فيلم تم إنتاجه في مصر وصدر في سنة 2006. إنه يوم عادي يعيشه رؤوف، الذي يقضي يومه بين سباق الزمن ومحاولات المكسب والعاب الهيمنة بينه وبين الآخرين بالأخص خطيبته نادية، ويأتي التأمل والذاكرة والحنين إلى الماضي أيضًا منثوران بين ثنايا اليوم.
