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
In 19th century Japan, an orphaned young woman working at a restaurant has a secret affair with a samurai from a higher social class. When she becomes pregnant, she struggles with whether to tell him, fearing it will cause problems for both of them.
