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

Eu Odeio o Orkut é um filme brasileiro de 2011 dirigido por Evandro Berlesi e Rodrigo Castelhano. A história gira em torno de Jader Bertola, um viciado em internet que resolve escrever um livro contando a sua trajetória até o chamado "offline do poço". O filme é uma adaptação do livro homônimo de Evandro Berlesi, lançado em 2007, e faz parte do projeto Alvoroço realizado na cidade de Alvorada, no Rio Grande do Sul, que consiste em produzir filmes de baixo orçamento inteiramente alvoradenses, com equipe, elenco e trilha sonora local. Porém, mesmo assim, o filme contou com 3 participações especiais: Luana Piovani, Júlio Rocha e Jairo Mattos, que atua em São Paulo mas é natural de Alvorada. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
