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

My Bebe Love: #KiligPaMore (transl. My Baby Love: #KeepOnFeelingKilig) is a 2015 Filipino romantic comedy film directed by Jose Javier Reyes, starring Ai-Ai delas Alas and Vic Sotto with Alden Richards and Maine Mendoza. It is an official entry to the 2015 Metro Manila Film Festival produced by Octo Arts Films, M-Zet Productions, APT Entertainment, GMA Pictures, and MEDA Productions. The film follows the love–hate relationship story between Vito Carillo (Sotto) and Corazon Talatala (delas Alas) and the growing relationship between star-crossed lovers Dondi Talatala (Richards) and Anna Carillo (Mendoza). Aside from being the first film of the love team of Richards and Mendoza (collectively known as AlDub), My Bebe Love is the reunion film between delas Alas and Sotto after Enteng ng Ina Mo, which also was an MMFF entry in 2011. It is the first film co-produced under delas Alas's production company MEDA Productions. The film was shown internationally in selected cinemas in San Francisco and Los Angeles in the United States, Melbourne and Sydney in Australia, and Abu Dhabi and Dubai in the United Arab Emirates. My Bebe Love formerly holds the record for the highest opening-day gross in Philippine cinema with ₱60.4 million until it was surpassed by The Super Parental Guardians with ₱75 million; it grossed ₱385 million nationwide. During the awards night of the MMFF, the film placed third for the Best Picture category, and received the Gatpuno Antonio J. Villegas Cultural Award; and Mendoza won Best Supporting Actress. The film marks the last appearance of actress Lilia Cuntapay, who died in her son's home in Pinili, Ilocos Norte on August 20, 2016, aged 80. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
