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

Mala, amore e morte è un film del 1977, diretto da Tiziano Longo. La giovane Marisa, dopo avere ereditato dalla zia (che, peraltro, è stata assassinata) una pensione sita nella capitale, si trova invischiata, suo malgrado, in una squallida storia di ricatti, mafia e delitti. Ne uscirà indenne quasi miracolosamente, grazie all'aiuto di Carlo Martini, un bel giovane che, alla fine della storia, diverrà il suo nuovo uomo. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
