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

L'Agence O-Kay est un moyen métrage français réalisé par André Chotin, sorti en 1932. Max, employé d'une agence de placement, n'arrive pas à vendre quoi que ce soit et aime la fille de patron. Le soir, il chante au cabaret du Poisson Bleu sans plus de succès. C'est alors que la chance lui sourit: la patronne du cabaret décide de vendre l'établissement ; or un client anglais, désirant faire de sa femme une vedette de music-hall, recherche justement ce genre d'affaire. À la suite de plusieurs subterfuges, aidé de la fille de son patron, Max réussit la vente et gagne ainsi la main de celle qu'il convoite, et tout se termine par des chansons.
