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

This documentary almanac was made by film students over four months as Ukraine changed. It shares personal stories from people whose lives were transformed by the Maidan protests, from joyful dancing to violent gunfire. The accounts focus on raw emotions rather than polished words.
