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

Perinelli que se estrenó el 24 de septiembre de 1970 y que tuvo como protagonistas a Carlos Estrada, Elena Sedova, Héctor Alterio y Golde Flami. El afiche de publicidad fue prohibido por la Municipalidad de Buenos Aires porque Elena Sedova “podría estar desnuda” (en el afiche sólo aparecía su cara). (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
