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 uses interviews with more than 80 people to tell the story of Taiwan's semiconductor industry. It follows the engineers, factory workers, policymakers, and young professionals who built and now carry on this global technological force. The film covers how the industry started from nothing and became a key part of the island's modern history.
