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 man inherits a castle in Scotland and returns home to find it filled with strange secrets and a giant hedge maze. Strange occurrences and cryptic behavior from the household staff point to something sinister lurking on the grounds.
