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

Paludiers de la Baie est un documentaire franco-britannique réalisé par Oliver Dickinson, sorti en 2013. Il y a une dizaine d’années, quelques passionnés ont fait revivre la saliculture en baie de Bourgneuf, jadis célèbre à travers l’Europe pour son “or blanc”. Ces nouveaux paludiers ont défriché et curé les marais à l’abandon pour recommencer à produire le sel de la Baie. Au fil des saisons, nous découvrons Bernard, Daniel et Mano, trois personnalités très différentes qui se retrouvent néanmoins dans l’amour du métier et le respect de la nature.
