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.

How it feels

A generous composer gives free singing lessons, which angers his colleagues. His operetta is staged in a way he dislikes, making him sad. Then he meets a woman who changes everything.

What happens

Bariole est un film français réalisé par Benno Vigny, sorti en 1932. Le compositeur Bariole, altruiste et généreux, déplait fortement à ses confrères parce qu'il ne fait pas payer les leçons de chant qu'il donne. Et l'opérette qu'il a écrite doit être montée dans des conditions qu'il désapprouve. Tout cela le plonge dans une grande tristesse. Mais, alors qu'il est au fond de la dépression, il rencontre une femme qui va changer sa vie. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
