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

Moon, 66 Questions (Greek: Selini, 66 erotiseis) is a French-Greek drama film, directed by Jacqueline Lentzou and released in 2021. The film stars Sofia Kokkali as Artemis, a young woman who is forced to care for her estranged father Paris (Lazaros Georgakopoulos) after he suffers a debilitating illness, with their fractured relationship taking a turn toward healing when she discovers that her father has spent his life in the closet about being gay. Lentzou described the film as inspired by a desire to explore the reverse of the more common story of parents reacting to a child coming out as gay. The film premiered in March 2021 at the Vilnius International Film Festival in the European Debut competition for first-time filmmakers. It was later screened in the Encounters program at the 71st Berlin International Film Festival. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
