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

Iulia (titlul original: în cehă Jestřáb kontra Hrdlička) este un film dramatic cehoslovac, realizat în 1953 de regizorul Vladimír Borský, după nuvela omonimă din 1876 a scriitorului Svatopluk Čech, protagoniști fiind actorii František Smolík, Jaroslav Marvan, Vlasta Fabianová și Taťána Vavřincová. Filmul prezintă condițiile din Boemia din a doua jumătate a secolului al XIX-lea, când oficialii din orașele mici, precum Hrdlička, au cedat în fața prădătorilor burgheziei financiare și industriale în creștere reprezentată de Jestřáb.
