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

Zhonghua Nü'er (xinès simplificat: 中华女儿, pinyin: Zhōnghuá Nǚér, literalment 'Filles de la Xina') és una pel·lícula xinesa dirigida per Ling Zifeng i Qu Qiang i produïda per l'estudi de cinema de Changchun el novembre de 1949. Apareguda després de Qiao, suposa l'inici d'una saga de caràcter nacionalista, on es narra l'heroisme d'un grup de xiques que resisteix als japonesos en els territoris de Manxukuo. És un exemple del cinema del naixement de la nova Xina, on els personatges servien com a models de rols a imitar per part del públic. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
