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

Drat That Boy è un cortometraggio muto del 1904 prodotto da Robert W. Paul. Ennesima variazione sul tema dei "ragazzini dispettosi", che tanta fortuna ebbe nel cinema fin dalle origini. Gli attori che interpretano la madre e il figlio non sono accreditati, né si conosce la loro identità. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
