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
Non-actors play versions of themselves in this documentary-drama set around a rural area near Barcelona. The film follows several people whose lives intersect as they deal with work, family, and the changing landscape around them.

La plaga és una pel·lícula catalana documental de 2013 dirigida per Neus Ballús, d'històries creuades que ofereixen un sorprenent retrat de la vida als entorns de Gallecs (Vallès Oriental).

Es tracta de l'opera prima de la seva directora i guionista, que ha estat presentada en multitud de festivals de cinema, en els que està obtenint gran reconeixement, inclosos 4 premis en els Premis Gaudí del 2014.
