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

Varning för Jönssonligan ('Beware of the Johnson Gang') is a Swedish film about the gang Jönssonligan made in 1981. It was the first Swedish adaptation of one of the original Danish Olsen-banden movies. Somewhat ironically, it was based on the sixth Olsen Gang movie, Olsen-bandens sidste bedrifter, which was intended as the last one when it was made. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
