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

est un film français réalisé par Stéphane Giusti en 2008. Luca Morandi (Gilbert Melki), écrivain raté d'origine italienne par son père (Antonio, dont le rôle est aussi tenu par Gilbert Melki), vit en France et tente malgré tout, tant bien que mal, de vivre de piges et de commandes d'articles. Sa soeur Isabella travaille dans la restauration et ne rencontre pas de difficultés financières, mais manque de temps pour nourrir une relation équilibrée avec sa famille. La mort soudaine de leur père, les contraignant à retourner en Italie pour assister à l'enterrement, les forcera tous les deux à affronter les problèmes hérités par la vie dissolue que leur père avait menée jusqu'alors.
