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.

How it feels

A French comedy from 1986 about a group of people caught up in a series of misunderstandings and adventures in Moscow. The film mixes older and younger actors in a playful story that pokes fun at cultural differences and espionage tropes.

What happens

Twist again à Moscou est un film français réalisé par Jean-Marie Poiré, sorti en 1986. À l'instar de Papy fait de la résistance (le précédent film de Poiré), le film réunit l'« ancienne » génération d'acteurs (dont font partie les expérimentés Philippe Noiret, Bernard Blier, Jacques François) et la « nouvelle », représentée notamment par Christian Clavier et Martin Lamotte (qui ont co-écrit le scénario avec Poiré), Agnès Soral (forte du succès de Tchao Pantin), Anaïs Jeanneret et Roland Blanche.
