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

Who the #$&% Is Jackson Pollock? is a 2006 documentary following Teri Horton, a 73-year-old former long-haul truck driver from California, who purchased a painting from a thrift shop for $5, only to find out later that it may be a Jackson Pollock painting. She had no clue at the time who Jackson Pollock was, hence the name of the film. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
