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.
How it feels
This short silent documentary follows a train along the Colorado Midland Railway near Ute Pass in the Rocky Mountains. It shows steep mountain scenery and deep ravines as the camera travels through tunnels and across high elevations.

What happens
Panorama of Ute Pass est un très court film documentaire américain réalisé par Harry Buckwalter et sorti en 1902. Produit par la Selig Polyscope Company, le film montre quelques-uns des paysages les plus extraordinaires des montagnes Rocheuses, en suivant sur cinq miles la ligne de chemin de fer de la Colorado Midland Railway en direction de la petite ville de Manitou Springs, dans le comté d'El Paso, au Colorado. La compagnie a mis à la disposition du réalisateur un train spécial pour lui permettre d'obtenir des images exceptionnelles de ces paysages escarpés aux environs du col d'Ute Pass, la caméra passant, entre deux tunnels, des hauteurs de la montagne abrupte aux profondeurs du ravin.
