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
O Desejado (French: Les montagnes de la lune, also known as O Desejado ou As Montanhas da Lua and Mountains Of The Moon) is a 1987 Portuguese-French drama film written and directed by Paulo Rocha and starring Luís Miguel Cintra. The film was entered into the main competition at the 44th edition of the Venice Film Festival. The production of the film, and the experience of Yves Afonso, a French actor of Portuguese descent who first visited Portugal because of this film, later inspired Voyage to the Beginning of the World by Manoel de Oliveira.
