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

Le Challenge est un web-documentaire réalisé par Laeticia Moreau, produit par What's Up Films et coproduit avec Honkytonk Films sur l'exploitation du pétrole dans l'Amazonie équatorienne. Le documentaire interactif propose aux internautes de se mettre dans la peau d'un journaliste indépendant et d'enquêter sur un procès qui oppose la multinationale Chevron-Texaco à un groupe de paysans et d’indiens en Équateur. Ils réclament 27 milliards de dollars pour les dommages environnementaux et sanitaires causés par Texaco de 1963 à 1993. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
