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
Louis Theroux spends time at a London hospital observing patients fighting severe alcohol addiction and the doctors who try to help them. He shows the painful reality of their struggles and the toll it takes on everyone involved.
