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
The story follows a 17 year old girl in 1923 who dreams of becoming a singer. She runs away from home to stay with her aunt on the island of Shikoku, then heads to Tokyo as news of a great earthquake arrives. The series shows changes in Japan through the lives of ordinary people and a family running a shop on a pilgrimage road.
