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
The film follows Natalia and her daughter Galya as they are evacuated from Nazi-occupied USSR regions to eastern Kazakhstan. After losing sight of Galya at a chaotic railway station, Natalia searches for her in the overcrowded city of Almaty.
