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

Queenie in Love est un film franco-américain d'Amos Kollek sorti en 2001. Queenie, 24 ans, vit à Manhattan et travaille auprès d'enfants en difficulté. Excentrique et déjantée, elle rêve d'être actrice. Horace, ex-policier, vit seul dans le même quartier. Il commence une psychanalyse, après que son médecin lui annonce qu'il ne lui reste que quelques mois à vivre. Martha et Spencer, les voisins d'Horace, forment un couple d'ex-gangsters rentrés dans le rang, qui arrondissent leurs fins de mois en organisant des orgies sado-maso à quelques dollars la séance. Queenie est fiancée à Skip, un jeune loup aux dents longues de Wall Street. Et sa meilleure amie, Tzocki, se marie en octobre et enterre sa vie de jeune fille. C'est alors que Horace fait la connaissance de Queenie, une rencontre qui va bouleverser leurs vies. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
