The 3D catalogue: film cases on wooden shelves, with the cat sitting at the counter next to its greeting.

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

Daughter of Darkness is a 1948 British Gothic horror film directed by Lance Comfort and starring Anne Crawford, Maxwell Reed and Siobhán McKenna. Released in January 1948, it was based on the 1938 play They Walk Alone by Max Catto. It was shot at Riverside Studios, Hammersmith, London, (known at that time as Alliance Studios) and on location. McKenna was offered a Hollywood contract following her memorable performance, but heeded the counsel of Laurence Olivier to remain in theatre work. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
