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.
How it feels

What happens
《期待你長大》（英語：Be My Lovely Child Again）是一部於1987年由蘇偉貞原著、吳念真編劇、廖慶松導演的臺灣電影。童星林珊如因此片榮獲第24屆金馬獎最佳女配角與第35屆亞太影展最佳女配角獎。 故事描寫一位莫名反覆發燒後被診斷出得了血癌小女孩，每天打針、吃藥、每星期跑醫院、切片、抽骨髓，與痛苦相伴。她想吃冰、出去曬太陽、跟同學玩，全都成了不可能的奢侈。由於住院和藥物的影響，她的脾氣變得十分古怪。她的臉和身體狀況一天天不同，但她擔心的是朋友所喜愛的瓊瑤劇（《湮雨濛濛》）和隔壁班的小男孩是否愛上了別人。當探訪的親戚朋友越來越頻繁，頭髮絲絲掉落滿床，她開始懷疑自己是否活不久。父母想盡辦法要留住女兒的生命，多留一下都好，甚至尋找偏方和科學之外的靈技，但她最後還是走了，從此不再痛苦受罪。她的父母為他辦了追思彌撒，弟弟也很不捨。在父母眼中，她永遠是那麼大。 (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
