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
State Street Sadie is a 1928 American sound part-talkie crime drama film directed by Archie Mayo. In addition to sequences with audible dialogue or talking sequences, the film features a synchronized musical score and sound effects along with English intertitles. According to the film review in Variety, only about 10 minutes of the total running time featured dialogue. The soundtrack was recorded using the Vitaphone sound-on-disc system. This is regarded as a lost film. The plot of the film is suspiciously similar to that of The Girl from Chicago filmed the previous year and also seems to similar to the plot of the 1924 silent film Those Who Dance.
