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
Wan Pipel (English: One People) is a 1976 Surinamese-Dutch drama film directed by Pim de la Parra. The screenplay was written by Rudi Kross and Lou Lichtveld. The leading roles are played by Borger Breeveld, Diana Gangaram Panday, and Willeke van Ammelrooy. The film, produced by Wim Verstappen, was the first Surinamese film after independence. The budget was significantly exceeded, and projected visitor numbers fell far short of expectations. As a result, the dispute between 'Pim and Wim' was seen as the final blow for "Scorpio Films."
