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
The story follows the life of a black horse named Black Beauty as he moves between different owners in 19th century England. Through his own voice, the horse experiences kindness and cruelty, shaping his journey from a peaceful youth to a hard working life.

What happens
Black Beauty is a 1994 family drama film, written and directed by Caroline Thompson in her directorial debut. The fifth cinematic adaptation of Anna Sewell's 1877 novel of the same name, the film stars Andrew Knott, who, the year prior, had played Dicken in The Secret Garden (another of Caroline Thompson's film credits, as screenwriter), as well as Sean Bean, David Thewlis and Alan Cumming as Black Beauty. Produced and distributed by Warner Bros., under their Warner Bros. Family Entertainment label, the film's story is told as an autobiography of the horse Black Beauty (as in the novel), with Cumming's voiceover narration as Beauty leading viewers through the trials of the horse's life through his own eyes.
