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

In a small Japanese mountain village where papermaking is the main industry, a teacher named Kageko gets a visit from her former student Shingo. He proposes a plan to make counterfeit money. She refuses at first but later agrees to help for the sake of the village's poor children and her own child with a disability. The whole village becomes involved in the forgery.
