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 Syrian soldier is wounded and trapped in a ruined building, unable to leave. His wife reaches him, and over ten days of siege, a camera records their struggle to find life and joy amid destruction.
