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

Mexico is a 1930 short animated film by Walter Lantz Productions and stars Oswald the Lucky Rabbit. The soundtrack of the cartoon was missing for many years, until the discovery of a sound print in 2013. Then in 2014 the soundtrack version of the cartoon was uploaded to YouTube, but was deleted due to the YouTube account being terminated. In 2015 and 2016 two other youtubers uploaded the soundtrack version of the cartoon. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
