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.

How it feels

This is a Japanese claymation short that was played before feature films in theaters. It follows the daily lives of two rabbit siblings, Nora and Mini, who live in an underground apartment in a forest that sits between the real world and a fantasy world.

What happens

ノラビッツミニッツ（NORABBITS'MINUTES）は、映画館のMOVIXおよび一部の松竹系劇場において、長編映画の上映開始前に5分弱程度上映されていたクレイアニメ。2007年6月29日をもって、映画館での上映は終了した。 映画館によって、公称上映開始時刻後（つまり、場内が暗くなってから）に上映されるところと、上映開始前の幕間にスクリーンに投影されるところとがあった。 2007年11月28日に、劇場公開分の4話＋未公開の1話とメイキングが収録されたDVDがリリースされた。 人間の世界と空想の世界の境目にある森という舞台設定で、地下のアパートで暮らすウサギのきょうだいノーラとミニの日常を描く。 (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
