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

Camelo, Bruno (15 December 2015). "Após derrota de José Aldo, cinebiografia do lutador é adiada por tempo indeterminado". AdoroCinema. Retrieved 15 December 2015. Stronger than the World (Portuguese: Mais Forte que o Mundo - A História de José Aldo) is a 2016 Brazilian sports drama-biographical film written and directed by Afonso Poyart, about the life of MMA fighter José Aldo. It stars José Loreto, Cleo Pires, Rômulo Neto, Milhem Cortaz, Jackson Antunes, Claudia Ohana, Paloma Bernardi and Rafinha Bastos. The idea of the film was conceived during Internet searches made by Poyart after getting a call from the director of expansion and shareholder of Paris Filmes, who proposed to Poyart the project for a feature film involving MMA. In 2011, Poyart's production company, Black Maria, was already commanding the development of the film, which had high points of standstill before completion due to problems ranging from the casting to the director's prolonged absence and engagement in Hollywood cinema. In September 2018, the movie was nominated at the 46th International Emmy Awards for best TV Movie / Mini-Series. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
