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 husband goes to a college reunion. His wife slips one of her gloves into his pocket to remind him to come home early. When he returns late and finds the glove, he panics and stammers out wild excuses not knowing it belongs to her.

What happens

The Story of a Glove è un cortometraggio muto del 1915 diretto da Sidney Drew. Il maritino vuole recarsi a una rimpatriata con i suoi vecchi compagni di college: la moglie, per ricordargli di non fare tardi come al solito, gli infila uno dei suoi guanti nella tasca della giacca. Lui va, si diverte e torna a casa alle ore piccole. Quando, davanti alla moglie, tira fuori dalla tasca il guanto, resta un momento senza parole, ignorando che appartenga a lei. Così, comincia ad arrampicarsi sugli specchi per inventarsi una storia plausibile per spiegare come quel guanto da donna sia finito nella sua tasca. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
