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

La Constellation Jodorowsky est un film documentaire suisse de Louis Mouchet sorti en 1994 et consacré à l'artiste d'origine chilienne Alexandro Jodorowsky. L'auteur part en quête de l'« artiste total » qu’est Alejandro Jodorowsky : tour à tour cinéaste, écrivain, metteur en scène de théâtre, auteur de bandes dessinées, mime, montreur de marionnettes, psycho-magicien, découvreur empirique de la psychogénéalogie (qu'il nommera plus tard la "métagénéalogie"), clown... Ces multiples facettes forment, selon Louis Mouchet, un tout cohérent. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
