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
A young woman from a rural village moves to Shanghai and struggles to build a life there. Over ten years she makes friends and finds her way, but also loses herself to materialism before her friends help her find the right path again.
