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

Le travail c'est la liberté est un film français réalisé par Louis Grospierre et sorti en 1959. En raison d'une grève des éboueurs, il est fait appel à des détenus pour assurer l'enlèvement des ordures ménagères. Profitant de cette situation inattendue, trois d'entre eux réussissent à fausser compagnie à leurs gardiens. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
