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.

How it feels

What happens

Mamirolle est un film français réalisé par Brigitte Coscas et sorti en 2000. L' histoire d'amour entre Delphine et Manuel, fragile et insaisissable, est un road movie qui traverse les villages enneigés du Jura et du Haut Doubs. Delphine (Lou Doillon) adolescente en rupture fugue avec un jeune inconnu (Sylvain Jacques) atteint d'un cancer. Elle l'entraine autant qu'elle le suit dans une cavale où elle met en scène les différentes péripéties d'une vie de couple pour qu'il ne soit pas "volé de sa vie". (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
