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

Stella è un cortometraggio del 2009 diretto da Gabriele Salvatores per il progetto "PerFiducia", che ha coinvolto anche i registi Ermanno Olmi e Paolo Sorrentino, autori rispettivamente de Il premio e La partita lenta. Il lavoro realizzato da Salvatores per questo ciclo di cortometraggi evolve nei suoi dieci minuti di metraggio da un drammatico incipit che diviene occasione per sviluppare il tema della fiducia.
