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

Chithiram Pesuthadi (transl. The Picture Speaks, Dear) is a 2006 Indian Tamil-language romantic action drama film written and directed by Mysskin in his directorial debut. The film stars Malayalam actors Narain and Bhavana, both making their debut in Tamil cinema. The music was composed by debutant Sundar C. Babu with cinematography by Mahesh Muthuswami and editing by M. Kasi Viswanathan. Produced by Dreambridge Productions, Chithiram Pesuthadi was released on 10 February 2006. The film initially had a poor box office run, but soon became a major success after favourable word of mouth and one of its songs being aggressively marketed. It was remade in Telugu as Raju Bhai (2007), and in Kannada as Kiccha Huccha (2010). An unrelated film Chithiram Pesuthadi 2, produced by the same production company, was released in 2019.
