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
Grief is a 1993 American comedy film, written and directed by Richard Glatzer. The film stars Craig Chester as Mark, a story editor for a daytime court show called The Love Judge, who is still dealing with his grief over the death of his husband due to HIV/AIDS a year earlier when the show's producer Jo (Jackie Beat) announces that she's departing the job; although he knows he might not get the promotion due to his sexuality, he applies for Jo's job and finds himself in competition against his driven but Prozac-addicted colleague Paula (Lucy Gutteridge). The cast also includes Illeana Douglas, Alexis Arquette, Carlton Wilborn, Mickey Cottrell and Paul Bartel. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
