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

A recently divorced female judge in her forties finds herself attracted to two men at the same time: a literature professor and a lawyer from her own court. She decides to embrace her freedom and desires, while her inner thoughts and fantasies come to life through dream sequences, voiceovers, and visits from her father's ghost.

What happens

Clémence est un téléfilm réalisé par Pascal Chaumeil, diffusé en 2003. Clémence, la quarantaine, juge d'instruction récemment divorcée, se retrouve bientôt amoureuse de deux hommes à la fois, un professeur de littérature et un avocat de son tribunal. Tout en prenant à cœur les affaires qui lui sont soumises dans son métier, elle décide de profiter de sa liberté et de vivre ses désirs. Ses fantasmes et ses pensées intérieures se traduisent à l'écran par des séquences oniriques et une voix off, ainsi que par l'apparition récurrente du fantôme de son père, lui-même juge de son vivant, qui vient la réprimander pour ses actions.
