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

Strong Enough to Break is a documentary film directed and written by Ashley Greyson. It follows Hanson, an American pop band from Tulsa, Oklahoma, formed in 1992 by three brothers: Taylor Hanson, Zac Hanson, and Isaac Hanson. The documentary covers the band's 40-month struggle to record and release their third studio album Underneath, and the creation of their independent record label, 3CG Records. The group formed 3CG, an acronym for "3 Car Garage", in October 2003 and released their album Underneath in 2004 through the 3CG Records label. The documentary of this effort was shown at college campuses around the United States during the band's 2005 tour and the 10th Annual Hollywood Film Festival in 2006. The documentary was nominated for Best Documentary. The Strong Enough to Break DVD/CD was later issued via their official store. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
