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
An army colonel investigates an American officer who is suspected of collaborating with the enemy during the Korean War. The inquiry explores the psychological pressures of captivity and questions of loyalty and honor.

What happens
Time Limit is a 1957 American legal drama film directed by Karl Malden, based on the 1956 Broadway play of the same name by Henry Denker and Ralph Berkey. The film is Malden's only directing credit; in his autobiography, Malden stated that he "preferred being a good actor to being a fairly good director." Richard Widmark co-produced the film and stars alongside Richard Basehart, who was nominated for the BAFTA Award for Best Foreign Actor for his performance. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
