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 Pactole est un film français réalisé par Jean-Pierre Mocky en 1985. Yves Beaulieu (Richard Bohringer) vit avec sa femme Anne (Pauline Lafont), sa fille Stéphanie (Céline Militon) et sa belle-mère (Bernadette Lafont). Lassé de son dangereux travail de démineur, ingrat, sous-payé et sans reconnaissance, Yves décide de tenter le tout pour le tout et réalise un braquage dans le supermarché voisin. Traqué par l’inspecteur Rousselet (Patrick Sébastien), il est soumis à un mystérieux chantage et tente d’échapper à la justice pour profiter du fruit de son crime. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
