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.
How it feels
A detective agency boss sends two clumsy and bumbling detectives to watch all the theaters in town, believing a jewel thief is performing on stage. As the detectives wander from theater to theater, the film strings together a series of comedy sketches from various revues.

What happens
Assi alla ribalta è un film, del 1954, diretto da Ferdinando Baldi e Giorgio Cristallini. Il direttore dell'agenzia investigativa "La Rapida" scopre che un ladro di gioielli frequenta il teatro. Così da l'incarico a due goffi e pasticcioni detective di sorvegliare tutti i teatri della zona. L'attività svolta dai due, entrando di teatro in teatro, fa quindi da filo conduttore collegando numerose scenette riprese da varie riviste e ampiamente sfruttate in seguito anche dalla TV. Nel film compare anche il gruppo The Rocky Mountains Ol' Time Stompers mentre accompagna l'esibizione di Bruno Dossena. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
