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

This is a Soviet stop-motion puppet film based on a Russian folktale. It tells the story of a fox and a wolf in a simple rural setting, animated with early three-color technology. The film was one of the first Soviet works to use this color process.
