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

R.A.S. est un film franco-italo-tunisien réalisé par Yves Boisset et sorti en 1973. Ce long métrage traite de la guerre d'Algérie, et de la façon dont l'armée française a traité l'insoumission de certains appelés, l'abréviation R.A.S. signifiant « rien à signaler » dans les contextes militaire et administratif.
