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 story follows two pairs of women across different time periods in China. In the 19th century, two girls become lifelong friends through a secret code written on a fan. In modern Shanghai, a woman discovers her family history and forms a bond with a younger relative.
