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
Two Vietnam War veterans visit a former comrade and his family at their remote farmhouse. The reunion strains old bonds and opens up buried conflicts.

What happens
The Visitors is a 1972 American drama film directed by Elia Kazan and starring James Woods in his debut. It was entered into the 1972 Cannes Film Festival. Kazan used an article written by Daniel Lang for The New Yorker in 1969, and Lang's subsequent book Casualties of War, as a jumping-off point for this film. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
