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

Crioulo Doido é um filme brasileiro de 1973, do gênero drama, dirigido e roteirizado por Carlos Alberto Prates Correia. Filmado em Sabará (Minas Gerais), o título do filme faz referência a canção "Samba do Crioulo Doido", ouvida em uma das cenas finais, mas deixa de lado o cunho humorístico da letra da composição e se concentra em aspectos sociais e culturais.
