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
A suburban couple starts swapping partners with other couples to break free from their boring daily lives. The film follows them as they drink, fight and flirt without showing nudity due to theater rules.

What happens
Suburban Roulette is a 1968 American drama film directed by Herschell Gordon Lewis and starring William Kerwin and Allison Louise Downe as characters who are involved in wife swapping to overcome the boredom of living in the suburbs. It was produced as an independent film by Lewis and was shown in Chicago area movie theaters during the summer of 1968. It contains implied sex, boozing, adult themes, fighting, but is without nudity (which would have prohibited mainstream movie theater distribution). It was filmed in Wood Dale, Illinois, a suburb of Chicago during the summer of 1967. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
