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

Flirt is een Nederlandse film uit 2005 onder regie van Jaap van Eyck. Van Eyck werkte jarenlang als regieassistent voor Eddy Terstall en bedacht samen met hem het scenario. Deze lowbudgetfilm werd grotendeels zonder salarissen gemaakt. De acteurs zouden pas verdienen wanneer de film het in de bioscoop aardig zou doen. De film kwam echter niet uit de kosten en haalde circa 95.000 euro op. Actrice Lidewij Mahler werd voor haar rol in Flirt genomineerd voor een Gouden Kalf. De re-make rechten van de film werden verkocht aan de Verenigde Staten. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
