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 is a visual interpretation of Ravel's Bolero. It shows a series of surreal drawings moving in rhythm with the music. The film focuses on shape and motion rather than a traditional story.

What happens

«Балеро» (англ.: Bolero) — расійскі мультыплікацыйны фільм 1992 года рэжысёра Івана Максімава. Мультфільм пабудаваны як увасабленне «Балеро» Равеля ў руху сюррэалістычных малюнкаў і ў рытме фільма. Паводле меркавання рэжысёра, «Балеро» — адзін з трох яго найлепшых мультфільмаў (разам з «5/4» і «Вецер уздоўж берага»). Менавіта гэтыя тры мультфільмы рэжысёра увайшлі ў «Залатую сотню» расійскай анімацыі ў 2012 годзе. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
