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.

How it feels

Five young women in 1960s France are each on the verge of losing their virginity. Their interconnected stories pass from one character to the next like a relay race.

What happens

Les Vierges est un film franco-italien réalisé par Jean-Pierre Mocky, sorti en 1963. Le film met en scène des histoires plus ou moins entremêlées de cinq jeunes filles sur le point de perdre leur virginité situent Les Vierges entre le film à sketches et le film choral : un personnage de chaque séquence se retrouve dans la séquence suivante (comme dans La Ronde) assurant le passage de témoin de leur enchaînement.
