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

This documentary uses family photos and home movies to explore the marriage of the director's parents. Her mother married a photograph of her father because he was abroad studying. The film shows the growing divide between her secular father and her traditional Muslim mother.
