The 3D catalogue: film cases on wooden shelves, with the cat sitting at the counter next to its greeting.

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.

What happens

Syv dage for Elisabeth (Seven Days for Elizabeth) is a Norwegian silent film comedy from 1927 directed by Leif Sinding. The screenplay was written by Sinding and Arvid Skappel, and it was based on Skappel's novella Påskeflirt. Sonja Henie played a bit part in the film. The censors removed a closeup of a female dancer, the text Jeg vil, men først vi je ha dig sel 'I want to, but first I want you myself', and a brawl scene. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
