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

Sansür (En: Censorship) is a 1970 Turkish animated short directed by Tan Oral. The film won the grand prize at the 1970 TRT's Television Films Competition. It is then stated that the film will be shown on TV screens a week after the award ceremony, but the film is never aired on TV. Sansür was published as a book in 1977. But a court ruled to publish the book with a label stating "not suitable for those under 18" & "subject to threat". (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
