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

Et demain… ? (arabe : و غدا) est un film tunisien réalisé par Brahim Babaï et sorti en 1971. Premier long métrage du réalisateur, le film est une adaptation du roman Ma part d'horizon d'Abdelkader Ben Cheik. Il aborde les questions du chômage et de l'exode rural dans la Tunisie indépendante. Le film est ainsi représentatif de la Tunisie sociale et politique des années 1970. Il dénonce les inégalités entre la ville et le milieu rural. Plusieurs acteurs font leurs débuts dans le film, comme Raouf Ben Amor, Mohamed Kouka ou Samir Ayadi. La musique du film est signée par Mohamed Garfi. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
