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 documentary shows how villagers in Zanskar, a valley in the Indian Himalayas, survive a harsh winter. Their only link to the outside world is a dangerous 120 kilometer walk on a frozen river called the Chadar route.

What happens
Chadar, the Ice Trail is een bergfilm van Jean-Michel Corillion uit het jaar 2010. De film toont het leven van de bewoners in Zanskar, een verborgen vallei in de Indiase Himalaya in de Indiase provincie Ladakh. Dit gebied is tijdens de acht maanden durende winter volledig afgesloten. Het enige contact met de buitenwereld kan gelegd worden door een gevaarlijke tocht over de 120 kilometer lange bevroren rivier, de Chadar route. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
