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
In the summer of 1989, two city girls go to a small Latvian town to stay with their cousins. Left without constant adult supervision, the four girls play, copy adult behaviors, and get into minor troubles. The story is based on a nine-year-old narrator's memories of growing up during Latvia's early push for independence.
