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

Alice Gets in Dutch est un court métrage d'animation américain muet de la série Alice Comedies sorti en 1924. À l'école, Alice est punie et doit se mettre au coin avec un bonnet d'âne. Cela la fatigue et elle se met à rêver. Elle s'imagine jouer et courir avec des animaux avant d'être découverte par son enseignante. Cette dernière fait sortir d'un livre une armée pour vaincre Alice et ses amis. Après une poursuite, Alice parvient à organiser les animaux en une armée pour se défendre mais l'institutrice possède un canon. Les animaux parviennent à construire le leur avec les objets d'une décharge et du poivre. Le combat est rude tandis qu'Alice sort de son rêve éveillé. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
