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 Voyage du père est un film dramatique franco-italien de Denys de La Patellière, sorti en 1966. Avant d'être un film, Le Voyage du père est un roman de l'écrivain Bernard Clavel, paru aux Éditions Robert Laffont en 1965. Bernard Clavel ne goûta pas spécialement les modifications apportées par les scénaristes à son livre et devait par la suite se tourner vers la télévision pour les adaptations de ses œuvres. Le Voyage du père fut un roman de ce qu'on peut appeler sa première période, celle qui se situe avant le prix Goncourt, qui clôt le cycle de La Grande Patience en 1968. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
