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

What happens
In the Room is a 2015 Singaporean erotic drama film directed by Eric Khoo and written by Khoo and Jonathan Lim. The film stars Josie Ho, George Young, Daniel Jenkins, Koh Boon Pin, W Leon U, Show Nishino, Lawrence Wong, Nadia AR, and Ian Tan. The film comprises six different stories of couples in a single-room at a hotel in Singapore, spread over several decades. The film is marked as Singapore's first erotic film. At the same time, Khoo downplays the film's erotic themes, calling its ode to the national cultural trends "a look at Singapore through the decades. It's a homage to the country". Khoo dedicated the film to the late writer Damien Sin, who wrote Khoo's career-launching Mee Pok Man (1995). The story starts just after the surrender of the British to Japanese troops in Singapore in 1942. Six stories of six different Japanese, Thai, British, Chinese, and Korean couples are set in the same hotel room, spread over several decades. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
