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 16 year old in a small Mexican fishing village must find the courage to tell his loving family that he wants to live as a woman. The film follows his personal journey in a culture of strong masculinity and prejudice against transgender people.
