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
Elbow (German: Ellbogen) is a 2024 coming-of-age drama film co-written and directed by Aslı Özarslan in her directorial debut. The film, an adaptation of the Franz-Hessel-Preis and Klaus-Michael Kühne prize-winning German novel Ellbogen by Fatma Aydemir, is a story about 17-year-old Hazal, who lives in Berlin. Her biggest wish for her 18th birthday is to escape the everyday grind and party with her friends. But a fatal incident changes everything and she is forced to flee. The international co-production between Germany, Turkey and France was selected for the Generation 14plus section at the 74th Berlin International Film Festival, where it had its world premiere on 17 February and competed for the Crystal Bear for the Best Film. Aslı Özarslan, making her feature directing debut, was nominated for GWFF Best First Feature Award at the festival. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
