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

Le Naïf aux quarante enfants est un film français réalisé par Philippe Agostini, sorti en 1957 ou 1958. Jean-François Robignac, un professeur, arrive dans un collège de province pour enseigner les lettres à des élèves de troisième. Très vite, il s'attire la sympathie des enfants par sa jeunesse de langage. Mais les parents veulent le faire renvoyer quand ils apprennent que Jean-François utilise des mots d'argot pour rajeunir les textes des écrivains. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
