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

When Women Win è un cortometraggio muto del 1909. Il nome del regista non viene riportato nei credit del film. In seguito ai diritti ottenuti dalle donne che ora possono votare e accedere a professioni ritenute maschili, il mondo comincia a cambiare. In una piccola città di provincia, i maschi sono esautorati dagli incarichi negli uffici delle Ferrovie, le riunioni amministrative si trasformano in pomeriggi per il tè e le postine censurano la posta ritenuta troppo spinta...
