The 3D catalogue: film cases on wooden shelves, with the cat sitting at the counter next to its greeting.

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.

What happens

Ip Man 4: The Finale is a 2019 biographical martial arts film directed by Wilson Yip and starring Donnie Yen as Ip Man. It is the fourth film in the Ip Man film series, which is loosely based on the life of the Wing Chun grandmaster of the same name. A co-production of Hong Kong and China, the film began production in April 2018 and ended in July of the same year. It was released on 20 December 2019 and became the highest grossing Chinese film in Malaysia and Singapore, as well as the 5th highest grossing Hong Kong film in Mainland China. Although Ip Man 4 was originally intended to conclude the series, a fifth film was later announced. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
