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

육체의 길은 조긍하 각본, 감독의 1959년 흑백 영화이다. 이 작품은 신파적인 소재로서, 이른바 통속물(通俗物)에 속한다고 하겠으나, 대중들에게는 상당한 설득력을 가지고 있다. 때문에 흥행에서도 대성공을 거두었다. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
