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
This is a concert film from Depeche Mode's 1984 tour. It captures the band performing live in Hamburg, Germany. The title comes from a lyric in their song Somebody.

What happens
The World We Live In and Live in Hamburg is the first video release by Depeche Mode, featuring almost an entire concert from their 1984 Some Great Reward Tour, at the Alsterdorfer Sporthalle in Hamburg, West Germany on 14 December 1984. Directed by Clive Richardson, and released by Virgin Records, the name is a play on a lyric of the song "Somebody" (She will listen to me, when I want to speak about the world we live in and life in general...). Released on VHS, Betamax and LaserDisc by Virgin Records in 1985, the track listing was shortened on US releases from its counterparts in Japan and the UK. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
