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.

What happens

Äkkilähtö on vuonna 2016 ensi-iltansa saanut suomalainen draamaelokuva, jonka on ohjannut Tiina Lymi. Se kertoo lapsettoman uranaisen ja laiminlyödyn tytön karkumatkasta kohti tytön mummolaa. Elokuvan pääosissa näyttelevät Lotta Kaihua, Eedit Patrakka, Jussi Vatanen, Ville Tiihonen ja Antti Holma. Paljolti Kainuussa kuvatussa elokuvassa on poikkeuksellista se, että ohjaaja, käsikirjoittajat ja tuottaja ovat kaikki naisia. Elokuva ylitti 100 000 katsojan rajan vajaassa kuudessa viikossa.
