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
Le Beau Mariage (lit. 'The Good Marriage') is a 1982 French romantic comedy-drama film written and directed by Éric Rohmer, starring Béatrice Romand, André Dussollier, Arielle Dombasle and Féodor Atkine. It follows a young art history student (Romand) who swears off affairs with married men in favor of finding a husband, and soon pursues a successful and single lawyer (Dussollier). The film is the second instalment in Rohmer's "Comedies & Proverbs" (Comédies et Proverbes) series. It opens with a proverb by Jean de La Fontaine: "Quel esprit ne bat la campagne? Qui ne fait château en Espagne?" ("Who doesn't daydream? Who doesn't build castles in the air?"). (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
