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
This Norwegian documentary tells the story of Balto, a sled dog who helped deliver medicine to Nome, Alaska during a 1925 epidemic. After becoming famous, Balto endured a difficult life in captivity until people who cared for him stepped in.
