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 middle school student in the 1960s navigates adolescence and learns about bullying and prejudice when he befriends a lonely teacher who is rumored to be gay. The story follows his growing understanding of compassion and standing up for what is right.
