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
Kapag Puno Na ang Salop (lit. 'When the Ganta Is Full') is a 1987 Filipino action film directed by Arturo San Agustin and starring Fernando Poe Jr. (also producer), Eddie Garcia, Paquito Diaz, Jose Romulo, Dencio Padilla, Roy Alvarez, and Rowena Moran. Produced by FPJ Productions, the film was released on November 26, 1987. Critic Luciano E. Soriano of the Manila Standard gave the film a positive review, praising the dialogue and Poe and Garcia's performances which elevate its formulaic plot. Kapag Puno Na ang Salop was followed by two sequels: Ako ang Huhusga in 1989, and Hindi Ka Na Sisikatan ng Araw: Kapag Puno Na ang Salop Part-III in 1990. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
