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

Ang Daigdig Ko'y Ikaw (lit. 'You Are My World') is 1965 Philippine romantic comedy film co-written and directed by Efren Reyes and starring Fernando Poe Jr. and Susan Roces. The film is FPJ Productions' 3rd anniversary offering and features the then freelancer Roces in her first assignment since leaving Sampaguita Pictures. The film was the first of 17 pictures Poe and Roces would make together and was the beginning of their real life relationship, which would culminate in their marriage three years later. In celebration of the said marriage, the film was re-released to theatres in 1968 which contained footage of the couple's actual marriage ceremony. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
