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

Polaroïd est un film grec réalisé par Angelos Frantzis et sorti en 2000. Pendant la coupe du monde de football de 1998, un groupe de jeunes gens décident de s'affranchir de la culture populaire dominante (et dominée par le football) et donc de monter un spectacle. Leurs problèmes personnels rejoignent la fiction. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
