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 shows the changes of the four seasons over a year on a farm by Lake Simcoe. The images are set to Vivaldi's The Four Seasons music.

What happens
The Seasons is a 1954 Canadian short documentary film directed by Christopher Chapman. Set to Antonio Vivaldi's The Four Seasons, the film depicts the cycle of the seasons throughout a year on the grounds of his parents' farm on the shore of Lake Simcoe. The film won the Canadian Film Award for Film of the Year at the 6th Canadian Screen Awards. Following Chapman's death in 2015, a public sculpture inspired by and named in honour of The Seasons was installed on the grounds of the ReachView Village seniors home in Uxbridge, Ontario, where Chapman had lived in his final years.
