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

Three children sail in a wooden shoe through a moonlit sky while catching falling stars. It is based on a classic poem and uses a special camera to give the animation depth.

What happens

Wynken, Blynken & Nod is a 1938 Silly Symphonies animated short film, adapted from Eugene Field's poem of the same name. Like other Symphonies at the time, it utilized the multiplane camera. It was directed by Graham Heid, produced by Walt Disney, and distributed by RKO Radio Pictures. The three children bear similarities to Michael Darling in the 1953 Disney feature film, Peter Pan.
