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 Hungarian comedy film about the making of itself. The story stops when the cast and crew have a conflict, and the footage is put away for two and a half years. The film then resumes with the creators explaining what happened behind the scenes.

What happens

A Jön a medve! a L’art pour l’art Társulat 1989-1991-ben készült, és 1992-ben bemutatott tévéfilmje. A jelenetek nagy részét 1989 márciusában leforgatták, de mivel a társulatnak a rendezővel konfliktusa volt, emiatt leállt a forgatás, az elkészült felvételek ezt követően két és fél évre dobozba kerültek, és csak ezután került sor a zárójelenetek felvételére, amelyben a történet szerint is két és fél év elteltével a készítők vallanak az események hátteréről.
