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

Los tres berretines (The Three Whims) is a 1933 Argentine black and white comedy film, the first film made by the newly formed Lumiton film studio, and one of the first sound films made in Argentina. Along with ¡Tango!, released that same year, the film is credited with inaugurating the Golden Age of Argentine cinema. It was a great success and launched the film career of the comedian Luis Sandrini. In 2022, the film was included in Spanish magazine Fotogramas's list of the 20 best Argentine films of all time.
