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
A girl named Totto-chan attends an unconventional school in Tokyo during World War II. The school uses old train cars as classrooms and is run by a headmaster who encourages freedom and creativity. The film shows how this experience shapes her life.
