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
In 2006, a student researching a past massacre uncovers her mother's involvement with rebel fighters. The story also follows two male rebels in the 1980s who fall in love despite their group's rules.
