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

Teen Devian (transl. Three Goddesses) is a 1965 Bollywood film directed by Amarjeet and ghost-directed by Dev Anand. The film also stars Anand in the lead role. Filmed mostly in black and white, with some colour scenes, the movie tells the story of a poet who falls in love with three women. It is inspired by writer D.H. Lawrence's works. The music was composed by S. D. Burman, whose son Rahul Dev Burman composed the English version of this film titled "Oh Boy and Three Girls", but the print was never released.
