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
A newspaper editor tries to boost sales by publishing lurid stories about rapes around the world. The film shows these reported assaults in graphic detail.

What happens
Viol, la grande peur est un film français réalisé en 1978 par Peter Knight, pseudonyme de Pierre Chevalier, sorti en 1984. Frappé d'interdiction totale en France en 1980, il n'obtint son visa d'exploitation que l'année suivante. Un rédacteur de journal souhaitant relancer les ventes de son journal se met à publier de façon racoleuse des récits de viols arrivant dans le monde: viol collectif d'une autostoppeuse, viol par des GIs pendant la guerre du Viêt Nam, viol dans les geôles chiliennes du régime de Pinochet...
