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
Three mice who live in a cinema decide to pull off a heist after watching too many thriller movies. They plan to steal a giant piece of cheese. This is a parody of the classic film The Great Train Robbery.

What happens
The Great Cheese Robbery (Czech: Velká sýrová loupež (1986), German: Die große Käseverschwörung (1987)) is a 47-minute Czechoslovak-German feature-length animated film directed by Václav Bedřich. The film is a comedy about three mice living in a cinema. After watching many thriller films they plot a "great cheese robbery". It is a parody of The Great Train Robbery. The film is based on the children's book by Jean Van Leeuwen The Great Cheese Conspiracy, first published in 1969. Bedřich was both the director and a screenwriter, including character design. It was his longest animation. In 1991 an English-language version was dubbed by CINAR under the title The Great Cheese Conspiracy, i.e., matching the title of the original book.
