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

Los dioses rotos es una película cubana del 2008, escrita y dirigida por Ernesto Daranas Serrano. La trama presenta una reflexión en torno a perspectivas éticas y morales de un grupo de personajes pertenecientes a distintos niveles socioculturales, entre quienes las clasificaciones de “positivos” y “negativos” no resultan sencillas de imponer. Drama social, suspense y tragedia comulgan en una historia interesada en resultar amena, universal y consecuente con la realidad a la que se debe. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
