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

Quando la preda è l'uomo, también conocida como Spogliati, protesta, uccidi es una película italiana dirigida en 1972 por Vittorio De Sisti. En esta película Vittorio de Sisti enfoca un provocativo tema, un tópico dominante en los años 70: La controversia y la acusación de los sistemas de vidas y valores morales, que (equivocadamente) parecían estar consolidados. A través de la historia de una chica, la película evoca la protesta americana, los grupos revolucionarios negros, los problemas entre generaciones y las luchas políticas. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
