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

Pat und Patachon auf dem Weg zu Kraft und Schönheit lautet der deutsche Titel zu der stummen dänischen Filmkomödie Kraft og Skønhed, die Lau Lauritzen sr. 1927 bei der Kopenhagener Palladium Film mit Carl Schenström als Pat und Harald Madsen als Patachon realisierte. Das Drehbuch verfasste er zusammen mit Alice O’Fredericks. Der Titel verweist ironisch auf den deutschen Kulturfilm Wege zu Kraft und Schönheit (1925). (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
