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

What happens

『テイク8』（テイクエイト）は、上田慎一郎監督による2015年製作の日本の短編映画。2018年10月12日より、『上田慎一郎ショートムービーコレクション』の一篇として劇場公開。 自主映画監督の隆夫（芹澤興人）は恋人の茜（山本真由美）を花嫁役に「結婚」をテーマにした新作を撮影していた。撮影は快調に進み、残すは1シーンのみだったがそのシーンに出演する花嫁の父親役の役者が現場に来ない。そこで見学に来ていた茜の実の父・徹（牟田浩二）が代役として出演することになるが、徹は隆夫に難癖をつけ、撮り直しを何テイクも要求する。 (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
