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

Bangalore Naatkal (transl. Bangalore Days) is a 2016 Indian Tamil-language coming of age comedy drama film directed by Bhaskar. It is a remake of the 2014 Malayalam film Bangalore Days written and directed by Anjali Menon. The film stars Arya, Sri Divya, Bobby Simha, Rana Daggubati, and Parvathy Thiruvothu, and tells the story of three cousins who live their childhood dream of living and enjoying in the city of Bangalore. Unlike the original, the film received mixed reviews from critics and was a box-office failure, with critics and audiences drawing comparisons with the original. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
