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

Portrait of Innocence (French: Nous les gosses) is a 1941 French comedy drama film directed by Louis Daquin and starring Louise Carletti, Gilbert Gil and André Brunot. It was shot at the Joinville Studios in Paris during the German occupation. The film's sets were designed by the art director Lucien Aguettand. It is also known by the alternative title Us Kids, and drew uncredited inspiration from Erich Kästner's novel Emil and the Detectives. In 1948 Cecil Day-Lewis based his book The Otterbury Incident on the film's screenplay. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
