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

Dhuan (Hindi: Smoke) is a 1981 Hindi-language thriller film, produced by Gautham Guha under the Sri Sai Chitra banner and directed by Dulal Guha. It stars Mithun Chakraborty, Ranjeeta, Raakhee, Amjad Khan and Jeetendra in a guest appearance and music composed by R. D. Burman. It is a remake of the 1963 Bengali film Sesh Anka, which itself is an adaptation of English-language film Chase a Crooked Shadow (1958) and remade in Telugu as Mayadari Maridi (1985). The same plot was later used in the 1989 film Khoj starring Rishi Kapoor and Kimi Katkar. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
