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

Manon des sources est un film français réalisé par Marcel Pagnol, sorti en 1952. Il est divisé en deux parties pour l'exploitation, intitulées Manon des sources et Ugolin. Le scénario est à l'origine d'un roman publié dix ans plus tard par Marcel Pagnol sous le titre L'Eau des collines, découpé en deux parties, dont le second tome est Manon des sources. Une adaptation en deux films de ce roman est produite et réalisée pour le cinéma par Claude Berri en 1986, le second film ayant également le même titre. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
