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
Wonder of Women is a 1929 American sound part-talkie pre-Code drama film directed by Clarence Brown and starring Lewis Stone, Leila Hyams, and Peggy Wood. While the film has a few talking sequences, the majority of the film features a synchronized musical score with sound effects using both the sound-on-disc and sound-on-film process. It was nominated for Best Writing at the 2nd Academy Awards. Based on the 1927 German novel Die Frau des Steffen Tromholt by Hermann Sudermann, the film is now lost with only sound discs surviving at UCLA. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
