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 examines the political legacy of Japan's longest serving prime minister Shinzo Abe through the influence of his maternal grandfather Nobusuke Kishi. It uses black humor and satirical picture books to explore how Abe's upbringing and family teachings shaped his ambitious forward-looking political stance.
