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
A young man is paralyzed after an accident and forms a quiet bond with his male nurse in a Bangkok home. The film follows their daily routine and the subtle shifts in their relationship.

What happens
Mundane History (Thai: เจ้านกกระจอก) is a 2009 film by the Thai film-maker Anocha Suwichakornpong. She wrote, co-produced and directed the film. It is described as “one of the most startling and original feature debuts of recent years", and received its world premiere on 10 October 2009 at the 14th Busan International Film Festival in South Korea. It was the first Thai film to receive the country's most restrictive viewing rating, due to a scene of full-frontal male nudity and masturbation. Mundane History won the Tiger Award at the 2010 International Film Festival Rotterdam. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
