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

Dora, la espía (italien : Dora o le spie) est une comédie hispano-italienne réalisée par Raffaello Matarazzo et sortie en 1943. Le film n'a été distribué qu'en Espagne bien qu'il ait été coproduit avec l'Italie. Le scénario du film est adapté d'une pièce de Victorien Sardou intitulée Dora et créée en 1877. La pièce est reprise en 1906 sous le titre L'Espionne. Le 6 juillet 1944, le film remporte un prix financier de 100 000 pesetas lors de la remise des prix du Sindicato Nacional del Espectáculo (es).
