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

Final Cut is a 1980 Australian thriller film directed by Ross Dimsey. It was the first movie funded by the Queensland Film Corporation, who provided half the budget. The Australian Film Commission and private investment provided the rest of the finance. It was originally envisioned as a tele movie but then developed into a feature. It was shot at Surfers' Paradise. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
