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

Kakaoplantage ved Guldkysten er en dansk dokumentarfilm fra 1954, der er instrueret af Hakon Mielche. Kakaoblomsterne vokser på stammen. De modne frugter kan være op til 20 cm lange. Der høstes to gange om året. Frugterne skæres forsigtigt ned, åbnes med et hug af en stor kniv, og frøene rystes ud. Frøene dækkes med bananblade og gærer i syv dage, hvorpå de tørres. Sækkene syes til og anbringes i vældige stabler på strandbredden. Opkøberen undersøger kvaliteten. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
