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

Water Babies is a Walt Disney produced Silly Symphonies animated short film released on May 11, 1935, by United Artists. The cartoon was directed by Wilfred Jackson. It features 2-inch-tall nude babies playing games in and out of the water. The babies are all completely identical other than the color of their hair. The edited version of the film eliminates some shots that feature nude baby bottoms as a sight gag. This short was followed in 1938 by a sequel short, Merbabies. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
