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

O Homem que Roubou a Copa do Mundo' é um filme brasileiro, do gênero comédia, produzido em 1961 e dirigido por Victor Lima. Este filme retrata, de forma ficcional, o roubo da taça Jules Rimet. Ronald Golias e Grande Otelo eram os detetives encarregados de encontrar o troféu após seu desaparecimento. Curiosamente, 22 anos depois deste filme, a Jules Rimet de fato seria roubada, como imaginado no filme. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
