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

La Fille de feu est un film français réalisé par Alfred Rode, sorti en 1958. Le physicien Théodore Heldt, sa jeune fille Fern et son assistant Larry Gordon, embarqués sur un navire pour une expédition scientifique, font naufrage dans l'océan Pacifique après une terrible tempête. Ils se retrouvent sains et saufs sur une île déserte exotique et paradisiaque. Plusieurs années passent, le professeur décède et Fern et Larry, amoureux depuis longtemps et seuls au monde, s’unissent. Le bateau qu’ils guettent avec tant d’espoir apparaît un jour, mais les navigateurs sont trois trafiquants qui, au lieu de représenter le salut, vont constituer une menace pour le jeune couple… (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
