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

All Together (also known as Walt Disney's All Together) is a three-minute educational short animated film made by the Walt Disney Studios, for the National Film Board of Canada. The film was released theatrically on January 13, 1942 as part of a series of four films directed at the Canadian public to buy war bonds during the Second World War. All Together was directed by Jack King, and among other voice artists, featured the voice talent of Pinto Colvig as "Doc", Clarence "Ducky" Nash as "Donald Duck", and Walt Disney as "Mickey Mouse". This film marks the only appearance of Mickey Mouse in a World War II propaganda film. Additionally, Mickey appears in his older "oval eyes" design in this short due to animation being reused from older shorts. All Together features the characters from many of Disney's landmark animated features, including Mickey Mouse short films, Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs (1937), and Pinocchio. Much of the short consists of reused work from The Band Concert (1935) and Mickey's Amateurs (1937). (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
