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

Jelly T (Danish: Gummi T), also released as Ivan the Incredible, is a 2012 Danish 3D computer-animated superhero comedy film directed by Michael Hegner from a screenplay by Michael W. Horsten, based on the 1975 children's book Gummi-Tarzan by Ole Lund Kirkegaard. It is the second film in a trilogy of computer-animated films based on children's books by Kirkegaard, following Freddy Frogface (2011) and preceding Otto the Rhino (2013). Jelly T was released in Danish theatres on 16 May 2012. While being positively received in Denmark, critical response in the United States was mostly negative. It is mostly regarded as Denmark's "moon landing". (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
