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 famous singer and a settler fall in love. She devotes herself to her home and her unborn child but a birth accident leaves her unable to have more children. In despair she considers leaving her husband but war breaks out and he goes missing. She must face life on the frontier alone and find courage.
