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
This series uses archival footage to document the social and political collapse of the Soviet Union from 1985 to 1999. It shows what daily life was like for ordinary people during years of upheaval and uncertainty.
