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
This short documentary from 1950 shows the lives of Arab refugees after the Palestine war. It was the first film footage ever taken inside refugee camps. The film was made for Christian aid organizations to raise awareness about the refugees' situation.

What happens
Sands of Sorrow ist ein 1950 gedrehter Dokumentarfilm von 28 Minuten Länge über die Situation arabischer Flüchtlinge nach dem Palästinakrieg. Er ist Teil des 2009 eingetragenen UNESCO-Weltdokumentenerbes UNRWA – Foto- und Filmarchive der palästinensischen Flüchtlinge. Dieser Film wird unter den Archivalien von UNRWA besonders hervorgehoben, weil er das erste Filmmaterial überhaupt über die Situation in den Flüchtlingslagern enthält. Im Ton leicht didaktisch, richtete sich Sands of Sorrow primär an christliche Einrichtungen und Hilfsorganisationen. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
