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
Um Homem Célebre é um conto do escritor brasileiro Machado de Assis, que foi publicado originalmente na Gazeta de Notícias de 29 de junho de 1888, e posteriormente incluído na coletânea Várias Histórias em 1896. Trata-se de um conto psicológico, sobre o tema do músico que não alcança a plena realização, já abordado antes em "O Machete" (1878) e "Cantiga de Esposais" (1883). (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
