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
Two American cousins living in Barcelona navigate work, romance, and their own awkwardness against the backdrop of anti-American sentiment. The movie follows their interactions with local women and each other as they try to figure out what they want.

What happens
Barcelona is a 1994 American romantic comedy-drama film written, produced, and directed by Whit Stillman. Set in Barcelona, the film stars Taylor Nichols, Chris Eigeman, and Mira Sorvino. Barcelona is the second film—after Metropolitan (1990) and preceding The Last Days of Disco (1998)—in what Stillman calls his "Doomed Bourgeois in Love" series. The three films are independent of each other except for the cameo appearances of some common characters. Barcelona was released by Fine Line Features on July 29, 1994. The film received positive reviews from critics and grossed $7.2 million against a $3.2 million budget. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
