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

"납자루떼"는 1986년에 개봉한 대한민국의 영화이며 개그맨 서세원의 영화감독 데뷔작으로 화제가 됐으나 이해하기 어려운 영화문법 등으로 공감을 얻지 못해 흥행에 실패했고 서세원은 그 이후 도마 안중근으로 두 번째 메가폰을 잡았지만 시나리오, 홍보 마케팅, 제작비 등에서 어려움을 겪으며 흥행에 실패했다. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
