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 young boy from Guinea dreams of becoming a famous soccer player. His journey follows the true story of Salif Keita, the first African winner of the Ballon d'Or award.

What happens
Le Ballon d’or est un film franco-guinéen réalisé par Cheik Doukouré, sorti en 1994. La vie de Salif Keita, premier ballon d'or africain en 1970, inspira le scénario du film. Un roman pour la jeunesse sous le même titre, écrit par Yves Pinguilly et paru en 1994, a été tiré du film. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
