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

Até que a Sbórnia nos Separe (Portuguese for Til Sbornia Do Us Part) is a 2013 Brazilian adult animated dark comedy film directed by Otto Guerra and Ennio Torresan Jr., based on the play "Tangos & Tragédias", presented on stage since 1984. The creators of the play, Nico Nicolaiewsky and Hique Gomez, are credited for the voice of some characters and the movie soundtrack. The film follows the consequences of the accidental fall of the wall that separates a small country called Sbórnia from the rest of the world, and the culture shock that the protagonists, Kraunus and Pletskaya will face.
