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.

How it feels

This documentary looks at the events that led to the change of government in Ukraine in early 2014. It focuses on the fire in the Odessa House of Trade Unions and argues that outside forces and far-right groups played a key role in the revolution.

What happens

«Украина: Маски революции» (фр. Ukraine, les masques de la révolution) — документальный фильм французского режиссёра Поля Морейра. Фильм был показан 1 февраля 2016 года на Canal+, несмотря на то, что посольство Украины во Франции обратилось к каналу с просьбой снять ленту с эфира. В фильме показаны события, приведшие к смене власти на Украине в начале 2014 года, большое внимание уделено пожару в одесском Доме профсоюзов. По версии авторов фильма, за «революцией достоинства» стоят силы, действующие в интересах США, и использующие для достижения своих целей украинские ультраправые группировки. Картина вызвала серьёзные споры среди журналистов. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
