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 patriotic silent drama from Belgium after World War I. It follows a girl from Marcinelle who is executed by a German soldier after she throws her bread at a starving captive. The film shows her sacrifice and the harsh conflict between occupiers and locals.
