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
Nini is an Israeli romantic drama film from 1962, directed by Shlomo Suryano and starring Arik Einstein and Ronit Katz in the lead roles. The screenplay was written by Shlomo Suryano and is based on the 1957 book Nini, Daughter of the Other Religion by Meir Zarhi. The Israeli Film and Theater Censorship Board initially sought to ban the film because of its story about a Jewish man falling in love with a Christian woman. Ultimately, the screening of the film was approved, but it was denied the benefits usually granted to Israeli films under the Israeli Film Law. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
