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

Whistle is a 2003 Indian Tamil-language slasher film written and directed by J. D.–Jerry, which is based on the English-language film Urban Legend (1998). The film stars debutant Vikramaditya, Gayathri Raguram and Sherin in the lead roles, alongside Vivek, Dhivyadarshini, Livingston, Bhanu Chander, Mayuri, and Vaishnavi in supporting roles. It is set in a college campus where a series of murders take place. Whistle was released on 4 July 2003. While the film is primarily based on Urban Legend, Vivek's comedy track is based on Mel Gibson's act in What Women Want (2000). (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
