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

『僕らのワンダフルデイズ』(ぼくらのワンダフルデイズ)は、2009年の日本映画。 食品会社に勤める平凡なサラリーマン・藤岡徹は、入院先の病院で偶然「末期の胆嚢癌でもって余命半年」という主治医の話を聞いてしまう。突然のことに戸惑う藤岡。ある日、藤岡は息子の高校の学園祭へ出かけ、そこで学生がライブをする姿を見て、かつて高校時代に組んでいたバンド「シーラカンズ」に思いを馳せる。「最後にもう一度バンドをやろう」と思い立った藤岡はかつてのメンバーであった山本大樹、渡辺一郎、栗田薫に声をかける。 それぞれ50代となり、酒屋の栗田は母の介護、不動産屋の渡辺は赤字稼業、エリートコースの山本は激務と、バンド結成に前向きではなかったが、藤岡の病気を知りバンド結成をする。ドラムには新メンバー・日暮圭を加え、シーラカンズを再結成。オヤジバンドコンテスト出場を目指して奮闘する。 (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
