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

Love Songs (French: L'amour chante) is a 1930 French-German musical film directed by Robert Florey and starring Yolande Laffon, Piere Bertin and Janine Merrey. A separate German-language film, Rendezvous, and a Spanish version, My Wife's Teacher, were also released. It is "a musical comedy based on the humorous complications created by an adulterous young wife in the lives of everyone around her." The film was shot in Germany because France was not equipped to produce talkie films of sufficient quality for musicals. The film's sets were designed by the art directors Marc Allégret and Julius von Borsody. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
