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

"러브 스토리"(Love Story)는 배창호 감독이 자신의 경험을 바탕으로 해, 40대 노총각 영화 감독과 30대 인테리어 디자이너의 평범한 사랑 이야기를 서정적으로 그린 작품이다. 배창호 감독이 각본, 감독은 물론 주연까지 맡았으며, 특히 실제 부인인 김유미가 직접 여주인공으로 출연까지 하여 화제를 모았다. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
