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

Yuvathurki (transl. Young Turk) is a 1996 Malayalam-language action film directed by Bhadran, and produced by Amitabh Bachchan Corporation in association with Seven Arts. Suresh Gopi and Vijayashanti appear in the leading roles. Dr. Rajendra Babu was the dialogue writer for the film, who had earlier done Sphadikam, which was also directed by Bhadran, while Bhadran himself penned the screenplay. Most of the film was shot in and around Delhi, barring a few scenes. The Tapovanam of Swami Somendra was shot at Udaipur. Yuvathurki was the first Malayalam film by Vijayashanti. Although movie had a star cast and high budget for a movie in the 90s, the film fared poorly at the box office. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
