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.

What happens

Go Goa Gone is a 2013 Indian Hindi-language zombie action comedy film directed by Raj & DK. The film stars Saif Ali Khan, Kunal Khemu, Vir Das, Anand Tiwari, and Puja Gupta. Set partly in Mauritius, where nearly one-third of the film was shot, the narrative follows a group of friends who travel to Goa for a rave party and find themselves trapped on an island overrun by zombies. It is widely regarded as India’s first zombie film and has also been described as the country's first stoner comedy. The film was released theatrically in India on May 10, 2013. It received mixed reviews from critics, who praised its pacing, editing, and inventive use of genre elements while criticizing the screenplay and its second half. Despite this, Go Goa Gone was a commercial success and gradually attained cult status for its offbeat humor and genre-bending approach. A sequel, Go Goa Gone 2, was officially announced but remained in development limbo as of 2024. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
