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

Dientes de leche, es un cortometraje estrenado en 2004 y dirigido por el irunés Claus Groten. Al caer la noche, tres niños se colocan alrededor de una mesa con el fin de realizar un ritual de lo más siniestro, durante este, los niños van arrancándose sus dientes de leche mientras cuentan algunas de las cosas malas que han hecho sus padres. A pesar de sus rostros infantiles y entrañables, los niños esconden unas intenciones de lo más terroríficas pero mezclando entre ellas pequeños detalles cómicos que nos harán sacar una sonrisa.Ficha del corto en la web del Instituto Cervantes de Mánchester (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
