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

Raske Riviera Rejsende er en film instrueret af Lau Lauritzen Sr. efter manuskript af Lau Lauritzen Sr.. Den gamle italiener Guido Bruzzio og hans sønnedatter Mona er ved skæbnens tilskikkelse havnet oppe i en af nordens storbyer, hvor han driver gipserforretning. I Fyrtårnet og Bivognen har han fundet et par ihærdige medhjælpere, som med liv og lyst går op i arbejdet. En af forretningens bedste kunder er den unge skuespiller og cand.phil. Kaj Lynge. Han har i den sidste tid fattet en påfaldende interesse for gipsfigurer, og til hans husholderskes ærgrelse går der ikke en dag, hvor han ikke hjemfører mindst en eller to nyerhvervelser. Oppe i stuen over Bruzzios butik bor husets ejerinde, fru Kruuse. Her er Fyrtårnet en velset gæst, og her redder han sig mangen god kop kaffe. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
