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
Racewalkers is a 2025 Canadian sports comedy film, directed by Kevin Claydon and Phil Moniz. The film stars Moniz as Will, a man who aspires to become a track and field coach but is struggling to get taken seriously because of his dwarfism, but whose opportunity arrives when he meets Matt (Claydon), a washed-up baseball player looking for a new purpose in his life, and begins to train and coach Matt to compete in the sport of race walking. The film also stars Greg Bryk and Robbie Amell as Kurt and Ched Lester, a hypercompetitive father-son racing team whom Will and Matt must battle in the race walking competition, as well as Jess Salgueiro, Milton Barnes, Ryan Blakely, Rebekah Francoz, Trevor Hayes and Italia Ricci in supporting roles.
