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
Three elderly men who were classmates at a school in Lviv in 1944 meet again. They share memories and talk about their lives, including experiences as a political prisoner, a church leader, and a cancer surgeon.
