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

Pigen og vandpytten is a 1958 Danish family film directed by Bent Christensen and starring Lily Broberg. It is an uncredited remake of the German film And Who Is Kissing Me? written by Friedrich Dammann and Herbert Rosenfeld. In this 97-minute film, a just-fired chorus girl gets a ride from a rich shipowner's driver. By the time the gossip reaches the cash-strapped theater director, she's engaged to the shipowner. The girl gets promoted to the lead. Other misunderstandings follow. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
