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

Degree of Murder (German: Mord und Totschlag, French: Vivre à tout prix) is a 1967 West German crime drama film directed by Volker Schlöndorff and starring Anita Pallenberg, Werner Enke and Hans Peter Hallwachs. The film is mainly known because of the soundtrack composed by Brian Jones (founder and multi-instrumentalist of the Rolling Stones), Pallenberg's boyfriend at the time. The film won three German Film Awards. Part of the New German Cinema movement, it was entered into the 1967 Cannes Film Festival. It was filmed in Eastmancolor in West Germany in 1967.
