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

Monos con navaja es una película chilena del año 2000. Basada en la obra teatral de Rodrigo Achondo, dirigida por Stanley Gonczanski, protagonizada por Edinson Díaz, Fernando Gallardo y Carolina Fadic, entre otros y con la música de Gustavo Cerati. El origen del nombre se debe a una figura metafórica popular del habla coloquial chilena, que compara a alguien inexperto o impredecible con un mono que sostiene una navaja, transmitiendo la idea de peligro o riesgo potencial debido a la falta de habilidad o juicio.​ (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
