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 series is already out on the counter, with more like it waiting on the shelf next to it.
How it feels
A group of friends in a small rural village experience a series of horrific and violent events during their summer festival. The story follows a boy who becomes entangled with dark secrets and a repeating time loop. Trust and suspicion shift as each character's perspective reveals new layers of paranoia and danger.
