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.
How it feels
Two friends cross into Mexico on bicycles and stop at a bar near a notorious prison. A brawl breaks out and one friend is arrested. The other tries to negotiate his release but realizes he must take direct action to free him.

What happens
Escape from El Diablo è un film del 1983 diretto da Gordon Hessler. Pauli e il suo amico Daniel varcano in bicicletta il confine con il Messico per raggiungere un bar chiamato "Rosa's Cantina", che si trova vicino alla famigerata prigione di El Diablo. Nel corso della serata, nel locale scoppia una rissa e Pauli viene arrestato. Daniel, che è riuscito a evitare l'arresto, cerca ripetutamente di negoziare per il rilascio dell'amico, ma alla fine capisce che l'unico modo per liberarlo è intraprendere un'azione più diretta.
