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

La straniera è un film del 1930 diretto da Amleto Palermi e Gaston Ravel. Co-prodotto da Francia-Italia-Germania da Films Jean de la Cour e Hegewald Film e distribuito dall'Alfa Cinematografica, il film - girato agli Studios Tobis di Epinay-sur-Seine a Seine-Saint-Denis - uscì nelle sale italiane nel novembre 1930. Dal soggetto di Alexandre Dumas fils vennero tratte tre versioni: questa in italiano dal titolo La straniera; un'altra francese, con il titolo L'Étrangère, diretto sempre da Ravel e distribuita nel 1931; una in tedesco, anche del 1931, diretta da Fred Sauer, con il titolo Die Fremde, sceneggiata da Gaston Ravel.
