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 profiles Father Jung Il-woo, a Catholic priest who chose a life of poverty and connected with people across all boundaries. It shows him as an ordinary person with quirks and flaws, not a perfect saint, focusing on his joyful approach to simple living.
