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 animated short follows a toad traveling to visit his in-laws. Along the way he meets several animal companions who join him, but their arrival leads to a quarrel when they realize there is only one place setting for the meal.
