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 film follows the life of Katsushika Oei, the daughter of the ukiyo-e artist Hokusai, who was also a talented painter in her own right. Set in Edo-period Japan, it shows her struggles and dedication to her craft while living in her father's shadow.
