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.

What happens

Manushi (transl. Woman) is an upcoming Tamil-language political drama film written and directed by N. Gopi Nainar of Aramm (2017) fame and produced by Vetrimaaran and Ishan Saksena under Grass Root Film Company, B4U Entertainment, and IVY Entertainment. The film stars Andrea Jeremiah in the lead role, alongside Nassar, Tamizh, Balaji Sakthivel and Hakkim Shah. Ilaiyaraaja composed the music, while A. M. Edwin Sakay handled cinematography and the editing was done by Anthony and R. Ramar. The film has attracted attention for its legal and societal themes, and its release has been delayed due to challenges in obtaining a censor certificate from the Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC), with the filmmakers required to make multiple cuts and modifications.
