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

Schuldig ist ein deutsches Stummfilmdrama aus dem Jahre 1913 mit Eduard von Winterstein, Martha Angerstein und Harry Liedtke in den Hauptrollen. Der Film, der nach dem gleichnamigen Bühnendrama (1886) von Richard Voss entstand, gehört zu den frühesten Beispielen des zu diesem Zeitpunkt in Deutschland aufkommenden Autorenfilms.
