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

Daisy vuole solo giocare (The Daisy Chain) è un film horror indipendente del 2008 diretto da Aisling Walsh. Martha, una madre emotivamente fragile e in crisi, trasloca in un remoto villaggio irlandese con il marito Tomas dopo la tragica morte della loro bambina appena nata. Poco dopo il loro arrivo Martha convince il marito ad accogliere in casa la piccola Daisy, una bambina con problemi di autismo, figlia dei vicini di casa, morti misteriosamente in un rogo. Martha tenta di aiutare Daisy dandole l'affetto che non ha mai ricevuto, ma una serie di strani incidenti alimenta fra la gente del posto la diceria che la ragazzina sia in realtà una fata maligna.
