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

The Csardas Princess (German: Die Czardasfürstin) is a 1934 German operetta film directed by Georg Jacoby and starring Mártha Eggerth, Hans Söhnker and Paul Kemp. It is based on the 1915 operetta Die Csárdásfürstin composed by Emmerich Kálmán. The film's sets were designed by the art directors Robert Herlth and Walter Röhrig. A separate French-language version Princesse Czardas was also produced. In 1951 Jacoby remade the film starring his wife Marika Rökk. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
