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

è un film giapponese del 2004. In un remoto paese di campagna arriva una misteriosa ragazza: nessuno sa niente di lei, a parte il fatto che si chiama Jennifer e che non conosce neanche una parola di giapponese. La ragazza inizia a interessarsi di Takashi, un ragazzo emarginato dagli altri abitanti del posto perché considerato un poco di buono. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
