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

A Hedgehog Defeats a Tiger (Korean: 호랑이를 이긴 고슴도치) is a 1984 children's animated film released exclusively in North Korea. It was directed by Shin Sang-ok during his abduction in North Korea. The movie's screenwriting was made by Kim Jong Il, who allegedly was inspired by a fable he told in his early school life. The film follows a hedgehog, who challenges an arrogant tiger that confronts and attempts to bully a group of forest animal friends into submission. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
