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

Souris, tu m'inquiètes est un film québécois réalisé par Aimée Danis, diffusé en 1974. À mi-chemin entre la fiction documentée et le documentaire hérité du cinéma direct, ce premier moyen métrage d'Aimée Danis met en vedette Micheline Lanctôt, Luce Guilbeault et Luc Durand. S'intégrant dans le programme En tant que femmes produit par l'Office national du film du Canada, sous la direction d'Anne Claire Poirier, le film décrit le mal-être grandissant d'une femme au foyer dans un Québec des années 70 où la quête identitaire et la libération sexuelle des femmes sont subordonnées à celles des hommes.
