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

«Тартюф» — российский полнометражный цветной музыкальный художественный фильм, поставленный режиссёром Яном Фридом. Российская экранизация комедии «Тартюф, или Обманщик» Ж.-Б. Мольера. Съёмки фильма проходили с августа по октябрь 1991 года. Премьера картины состоялась в 1992 году. В фильме используется перевод пьесы Михаила Донского, с некоторыми стилизованными под исходный стихотворный текст добавлениями и с большим количеством песен (композитор — Геннадий Гладков). Сюжет и мораль первоисточника практически сохранены, за некоторыми исключениями. Фильм стал последней работой Яна Фрида. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
