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

Here I'm Alive is a 2026 neo-realist urban epic directed by Joshua Z Weinstein, who co-wrote it with Brian Jon Perkins. Set in New York City, a collection of dreamers hustle their way through the city's digital underbelly. Starring a group of non-actors, Here I'm Alive shows their vivid lives over the span of one single night. Indiewire's David Ehrlich called the film "A microbudget ‘Magnolia’ for the Age of Hypernormalization". "Anchored by a dialed-in original soundtrack of internet-fried underground NYC music from BBY Goyard, Harto Falión, and Cooper B. Handy and spiritual jazz from Nate Mercereau and Carlos Niño, the film pulses with a rhythm that is unmistakably, defiantly New York."[1] (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
