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

This documentary explores the possibility that Led Zeppelin played a small show in a Maryland youth center in 1969. The filmmaker talks to people who claim to remember the event and searches for evidence that a concert occurred. No proof of the performance survives.

What happens

Led Zeppelin Played Here is a 2014 documentary film directed by Jeff Krulik. The film centers around the Wheaton Youth Center, in Silver Spring, Maryland, where on January 20, 1969, Led Zeppelin supposedly performed on its first US tour. There are no known recordings, photographs, or any other physical evidence that the concert took place. Because of Krulik's inability to secure the music rights, the film has never been formally released. Krulik brings the film to whatever film festival will allow him to screen the documentary.
