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

This Soviet animated film adapts a Dr. Seuss story about fictional creatures. It mocks how these beings divide themselves by appearance and chase after material things.

What happens

«Сничи» — рисованный мультипликационный фильм 1989 года по мотивам сказки Сничи Доктора Сьюза. Фильм режиссёра Алексея Караева — насмешливый взгляд на суету выдуманных Доктором Сьюзом существ, в которых легко угадываются люди, на их стремление объединяться по чисто внешним признакам, на общество потребления.
