Asa, his cat and the Library of Dreams
Asa, a bored librarian who trained to curate rare books complains about his dead-end job. Later he returns home and in the morning finds his cat has died. He places his dead cat into his bag intending to bury him and steps in to the elevator which descends to an underworld library of dreams where he is invited to curate the collection. It is a mobile library. He might never return. He briefly returns to the 'real world' to bury his cat, and meet his girlfriend. He has to decide if he will accept the job.
