The 3D catalogue: film cases on wooden shelves, with the cat sitting at the counter next to its greeting.

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

Danger Within (U.S. title: Breakout) is a 1959 British war film directed by Don Chaffey and starring Richard Todd and Bernard Lee. It was written by Bryan Forbes and Frank Harvey, based on the 1952 novel Death in Captivity by Michael Gilbert, who had been a prisoner of war held by the Italians at PG 49 in Fontanellato. A combination of POW escape drama and whodunit, the film set in a prisoner of war camp in Northern Italy during the summer of 1943. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
