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
Seven directors share memories of growing up in East Germany during the 1950s and 1960s. They recall their childhood hopes, family dynamics, and the struggle to find their place in a divided country.
