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

Bride Sabina (Russian: Келинка Сабина, Kelinka Sabina) is a 2014 Kazakh comedy film directed and written by Nurtas Adambay. It stars Nurtas Adambay, who plays the eponymous main character, in travesti. The film follows Almaty native Sabina Qarsybaeva, who's kidnapped and forcibly wed to charlatan Janibek, and is therefore forced to get used to rural life. An experimental movie, which was written, produced and led by comedian and actor Nurtas Adambay, it was exceptionally successful among Kazakh audiences. The success of the movie earned it two sequels: Bride Sabina 2 and Bride Sabina 3. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
