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
『くれないものがたり』は、1992年（平成4年）6月13日に全国劇場公開された日本映画。製作・配給はパイオニアLDC。池田敏春監督、佐野史郎主演作品。上映時間は90分。 ジャンルはホラー、サイコミステリー、ラブロマンス。 札幌から京都へ修学旅行に訪れていた高校生・法靖は、興味本位でストリップ小屋に入り、そこでSM風のショーと官能的な香の匂いの虜になってしまう。その後、引き寄せられるように郊外の古い寺に入った法靖は、盲目の香の達人・春治と彼に付き添う和服の美女・燿子と知り合う。その妖艶な所作と美貌に惹かれた法靖は、たちまち謎めいた素性をもつ燿子と、夢ともうつつともしれぬ官能的な日々に落ちてゆく。 (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
