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
Set in 1940s Hong Kong, a woman from a wealthy but declining family navigates a complex relationship with a charming but unreliable man. The story follows their courtship and struggles as war threatens their lives and forces them to reconsider their priorities.
