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 hardworking man in a rural Korean village is nominated to become the village chief because he is trusted and diligent. A slick politician from Seoul arrives and threatens his chances. The story follows the man's efforts to hold onto the nomination.
