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

My Precious (Thai: รักแรก โคตรลืมยาก; RTGS: Rak Raek Khot Luem Yak, lit. 'The First Love is so Hard to Forget') is a 2023 Thai coming of age romance film based on the semi-autobiographical novel The Girl We Chased Together in Those Years by Taiwanese author Giddens Ko. The film was directed by Naphat Chitveerapat alongside Kanittha Kwunyoo and produced by GMMTV together with Nar-ra-tor. The story is about a group of seven best friends who had unfulfilled first love and all they can do is remember it as a positive experience in their life. The film was originally filmed and scheduled for release in 2020, but due to the COVID-19 pandemic in Thailand, it was indefinitely postponed before its actual release date on 27 April 2023 in Thailand. During the "GMMTV 2024: UP&ABOVE Part 1" event on 17 October 2023, it was announced that an extended version of the film would be released as My Precious The Series in 2024.
