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

The film visits three places on Europe's southern border where migrants from Africa, the Middle East and Asia are stranded. It shows people who are beaten and transferred between criminal groups as they wait years for a response. Some give up while others hold onto a faint hope.
