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

Auld Lang Syne è un cortometraggio muto del 1911 diretto da Laurence Trimble. Il titolo del film riprende quello che in Italia si conosce come il "Valzer delle candele", una canzone tradizionale diffusissima nei paesi anglosassoni. Il film è conosciuto anche come Old Lang Syne. Jean era il cane del regista che lo utilizzò in una serie di film girati dal 1910 al 1913, facendolo diventare una delle prime star canine dello schermo. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
