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

The Sticky Bicycle è un cortometraggio muto del 1907 diretto da Lewin Fitzhamon. Due ragazzini dispettosi incollano il sellino di una bicicletta lasciata incustodita con la colla per attaccare i poster. Quando il ciclista ritorna, non si rende conto dell'accaduto, monta in sella e pedala. Poi, però, si accorge di non poter più smontare di sella e chiede aiuto. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
