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

This Canadian animated short uses cut-out animation to illustrate how the world's population is growing faster than food supplies. It shows how advances against famine and disease have created new challenges, and it suggests that richer countries could help poorer ones through increased aid.
