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
A group of children play practical jokes on each other and the adults around them. It is a parody of the practical joke TV shows that were popular in Israel.

What happens
April Fool (Hebrew: אחד באפריל, romanized: Ehad B'April) is a 1989 Israeli children's slapstick comedy, written and directed by Menachem Zilberman, and starring Tzipi Shavit and Sefi Rivlin. Among the children appearing in the film is Natasha Braunstein, who later launched a successful film career as Natasha Lyonne. The film was narrated by actress Sarit Baruch Sari. The film was made at a time when practical joke reality television and films were popular in Israel. It was essentially a parody of the genre. Menachem Zilberman wrote and directed the film, which starred Sefi Rivlin and Tzipi Shavit, two of Israel's leading entertainers at the time, in the hope of creating a blockbuster, but the film proved to be a commercial failure.
