The 3D catalogue: film cases on wooden shelves, with the cat sitting at the counter next to its greeting.

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

Me siento extraña es una película dramática española de 1977, dirigida por Enrique Martí Maqueda y protagonizada por Rocío Dúrcal y Bárbara Rey. Las críticas iniciales a la cinta fueron mixtas, pero con el paso del tiempo llegó a obtener el estatus de cine de culto al considerársela un filme pionero de la cinematografía española por presentar el tema del lesbianismo de una forma más abierta al público.​ (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
