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

What happens
Abachurina Post Office ( transl. The Post Office of Abachur) is a 1973 Indian Kannada language drama film directed by N. Lakshminarayan, based on a short story of the same name written by Poornachandra Tejaswi. It was the first film adaptation of Tejaswi's works. It stars Naani, Girija Lokesh, Dasharathi Dikshith and Ramesh Bhat in lead roles. The film won many laurels upon release including the National Film Award for Best Feature Film in Kannada for its clear handling of the typical human mind amidst his curiosity. However, critics have argued that the film's focus is markedly different from that of the short story and fails to capture the writer's real intentions. The film produced by Patre C. Vinayak was certified with U grade and its musical score is by Vijaya Bhaskar. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
