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

A Welsh Singer (1915) is a lost British silent romantic film based on a novel of the same name. Produced by Florence Turner's Turner Film Company, it is a romance between two lovers from rural Wales who move to London and become artists. Among the company's most popular films, it was praised by British newspapers but received a mixed review in an American magazine. Turner starred as the female lead, while the male lead Henry Edwards also served as its director, marking his directorial debut. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
