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

Sikkim, terre secrete is een Franse documentairefilm uit 1956 van filmregisseur en scenarioschrijver Serge Bourguignon. Sikkim, terre secrete is de eerste film die werd opgenomen in de kleine staat Sikkim, waar de toegang in die tijd niet toegestaan was voor buitenlanders en om die reden juist net als Tibet de belangstelling aantrok van buitenlanders.
