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

Jeanne on suomalainen televisionäytelmä vuodelta 1967. Se on Jorma Kaparin suomennos ja Timo Bergholmin ohjaus italialaisen Luigi Lunarin näytelmästä, joka kertoo Jeanne d’Arcin viimeisestä illasta vankikopissa ennen teloitusta. Ranskan kuningas Kaarle VII ja englantilaisten sotajoukkojen johtaja Warwick yrittävät kumpikin saada marttyyrikuolemaa odottavan Orléansin neitsyen osaksi omia valtapelejään.
