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

This documentary examines the Favela Pacification Program in Rio de Janeiro. It focuses on the community's reaction after police killed a 10-year old boy in Complexo do Alemão. The film shows how the program changed from reducing crime to something that harmed the communities it was meant to protect.
