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
Rapture (French: La fleur de l'âge) is a 1965 drama film directed by John Guillermin, and starring Melvyn Douglas, Patricia Gozzi, and Dean Stockwell. It was written by Stanley Mann based on the 1954 novel Rapture in My Rags by Phyliss Hastings. It is reportedly Guillermin's own favorite among his films. His widow Mary Martindale said it "was the only film he directed that wholly satisfied his vision as an artist." (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
