The 3D catalogue: film cases on wooden shelves, with the cat sitting at the counter next to its greeting.

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.

Ayahnya ingin memisahkannya dari lingkungan pergaulannya di Singkawang dan minat Yunia pada barongsai. Namun, kecintaannya akan barongsai membawanya bergabung dengan sebuah sanggar barongsai pimpinan Suhu Fang di Jakarta dan bertemu dengan Ernest alias Ah Cheng. Mereka memiliki impian yang sama: ingin membanggakan Indonesia melalui barongsai. Yunia dan Ernest menemukan fakta menyedihkan mengenai nasib dan masa depan sanggar tersebut. Bersama dengan anggota lain, Pandapotan Sinaga, mereka berusaha mencari jalan keluar untuk membangun sanggar tersebut. Sayangnya, cara yang mereka lakukan tidak sejalan dengan Suhu Fang, sehingga ketika mereka mengikuti sebuah kompetisi dan berhadapan dengan musuh bebuyutan Suhu Fang, yaitu Suhu Hong, mereka harus mencari solusi sendiri.
