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

Her Hour of Triumph è un cortometraggio muto del 1912 diretto da Archer MacMackin. Il soggetto è tratto da un racconto del 1884 di Guy de Maupassant intitolato La collana: fu una delle prime trasposizione di un'opera dello scrittore francese per il cinema. Lo stesso soggetto era già stato adattato per lo schermo con un film del 1909 diretto da D.W. Griffith e distribuito con il titolo The Necklace. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
