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.

The film is a South Korean anthology that presents several short stories. One story follows a girl with Down's syndrome who faces teasing at school. Another focuses on a man whose conversations reveal his own prejudices. A third shows a North Korean refugee struggling with isolation and mistreatment.
