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

Resurrection (Italian: Resurrectio) is a 1931 Italian drama film directed by Alessandro Blasetti and starring Lia Franca, Daniele Crespi and Venera Alexandrescu. The film was the first Italian sound film to be made, but the studio held it back from release and another production by the company, The Song of Love, was the first film to be released. The film's production was troubled and it was not a commercial success. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
