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

Pellinaati Pramanalu (transl. Wedding vows) is a 1958 Indian Telugu-language comedy drama film, produced and directed by K. V. Reddy. It stars Akkineni Nageswara Rao and Jamuna, with music composed by Ghantasala. The film was simultaneously made in Tamil as Vaazhkai Oppandham with a slightly different cast that released the following year. The Telugu version was released on 12 December 1958 and the Tamil film on 4 September 1959. The Telugu version had an above-average run at the box office while the Tamil film fared averagely but recovered its money through pre-selling. At the 6th National Film Awards, Pellinaati Pramanalu won the Best Feature Film in Telugu award. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
