The 3D catalogue: film cases on wooden shelves, with the cat sitting at the counter next to its greeting.

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

Suspended (Polish: W zawieszeniu) is a 1987 Polish film directed by Waldemar Krzystek. The film tells the story of a former Home Army (AK) member who hides for several years in the cellar of the house belonging to the woman he secretly married during the war. Making clear the link between this film and Andrzej Wajda's Man of Marble, the director chose two of Wajda's actors; Krystyna Janda and Jerzy Radziwiłowicz. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
