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
《血战台儿庄》是一部中国大陆在1986年制作的电影,翟俊杰与杨光远合作执导,再现了台儿庄战役的历史。这部电影是中国大陆方面首次使用电影艺术的方式肯定国民党在抗日战争正面战场的作用,因此在首映时给观众带来耳目一新的感受。此电影与大陆其他电影风格截然不同,诸多细节迥异,甚至采用了国军的诸多习惯,如在军事地图中将日军绘成红色,国军为蓝色。 在程思遠推動下,廣西電影製片廠拍攝《血戰台兒莊》;蔣經國表示:「這部片子有幾點是可以的,第一,共產黨認為我們是抗日的;第二,對我父親是正面報道,沒有歪曲他。」 (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
