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

Adhikar (transl. Right) is a 1986 Indian Hindi-language film starring Rajesh Khanna and Tina Munim. It is about the struggles of a father to bring up his child after the rich mother has walked out of their life. The film was a remake of Pakistani film Qurbani (1981). In 1992, Ram Awatar Agnihotri wrote that it was in the films Alag Alag and Adhikar, both opposite Rajesh Khanna that Tina Munim showed the "first sparks" of the dedicated actress she had become. Tina regards her performance in this film as her career best. This was the last film to feature Rajesh Khanna and Tina Munim onscreen together. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
