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

Reveille: The Great Awakening (German: Reveille, das große Wecken) is a 1925 German silent war film directed by Fritz Kaufmann and starring Werner Krauss, Ruth Weyher and Gerd Briese. It is sometimes confused with the 1924 British film Reveille by George Pearson, but the two films apparently have no links other than their similar title. The film's sets were designed by Karl Machus. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
