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
Two couples travel across continents and trade places. An American pair explores Europe while a Swiss couple visits the United States. The film presents a series of scenic views and thrilling point-of-view rides.

What happens
Cinerama Holiday is a 1955 film shot in Cinerama. Structured as a criss-cross travel documentary, it shows an American couple (John and Betty Marsh) traveling in Europe and a Swiss couple (Fred Troller and Beatrice Troller) traveling in the United States. Like all of the original Cinerama productions, the emphasis is on spectacle and scenery. The European sequences include a point-of-view bobsled ride, while the U.S. sequences include a point-of-view landing on an aircraft carrier. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
