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.
How it feels

What happens
Le Cirque de Calder est un court métrage français réalisé par Carlos Vilardebó, sorti en 1961. Sur le même sujet, en 1955, Jean Painlevé a réalisé Le grand cirque Calder, 1927 (46 min). Mais un litige s'est créé avec Henri Langlois, un des financeurs à travers la Cinémathèque française, ce qui a empêché la sortie en salle. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
