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.

How it feels

A silent film adaptation of a Hungarian story. It tells the tale of a man and his rose garden. The film was the longest Hungarian silent movie made up to that time but has been lost.

What happens

Az Ali rózsáskertje 1913-ban készült magyar némafilm, melyet Gárdonyi Géza azonos című novellájából Damó Oszkár írt és rendezett. A film a rövid életű egri némafilmgyártás terméke, Damó saját filmvállalata, a Damográf készítette a francia Eclairrel közösen, a Hungária Filmkölcsönző forgalmazta és 1913 októberében mutatták be. Elkészültekor a leghosszabb magyar némafilm volt, 1450 méterrel. Nem maradt fenn az utókor számára. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
