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

This is an anthology of six animated shorts from South Korea. Each one focuses on a different form of discrimination or social pressure, such as disability, bullying, gender roles, vanity, treatment of foreign workers, and academic stress. The stories are told through various animation styles, from claymation to hand-drawn, and they highlight the harsh realities of being seen as different.
