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
The Everlasting Secret Family is a 1988 Australian film directed by Michael Thornhill about a secret society of gay men. It is based on Frank Moorhouse's so-named collection of four short stories published in 1980. The movie was financed by Antony I. Ginnane's IFM company. IFM pre-sold the movie to Hemdale Film Corporation for $1.5 million but Hemdale was later unable to meet its pre-sale obligations. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
