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

Live-Ism is the third concert film by Swedish pop music duo Roxette, released on 21 August 1992 on VHS and LaserDisc formats by Picture Music International and EMI. It contains a shortened version of the duo's 13 December 1991 concert in the Sydney Entertainment Centre in Australia during the Join the Joyride! Tour, which saw Roxette performing to over 1.5 million people during the tour's 100 shows. The video also contains behind the scenes footage, as well as the music videos to "Church of Your Heart", "(Do You Get) Excited?", and their then-current single "How Do You Do!". Live-Ism is a companion piece to the duo's fourth studio album, Tourism, which was released a week after the film. Furthermore, the audio of two live recordings featured on Tourism – "The Look" and "Joyride" – are both taken from the same concert featured on Live-Ism. The film was remastered and reissued on DVD exclusively in South Africa in 2011 by Revolver Records. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
