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.
How it feels
A silent comedy from 1929 about someone traveling to China. It contains racial content that is now considered offensive.

What happens
China Bound is a 1929 American silent comedy film produced and distributed by Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer. The film is rarely seen today due to some of its Asian racial content.
