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

A depressed ex-boxer finds comfort in a stray cat. When a mechanic steals the cat, the two men clash over what to name her and then get caught up in a conspiracy involving a mother and her son. They try to get the cat back while facing the same kind of injustice that has always hurt people like them.
