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

The Kid (also known as Kid Cheung and My Son A-Chang) is a 1950 Hong Kong drama film starring the then 9-year-old Bruce Lee in his first leading role in the title role of "Kid Cheung", and based on a comic book character written by Yuen Bou-wan, who also has a role in the film. The film co-stars Lee's real life father, Lee Hoi-chuen, and Fung Fung. This is the second film in which the father and son worked together on, the other being The Birth of Mankind in 1946.
