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
Max is a Canadian drama film, directed by Charles Wilkinson and released in 1994. The film centres on Max Blake (Fabio Wilkinson), a young boy with a serious medical condition whose parents Andy (R. H. Thomson) and Jayne (Denise Crosby) are in conflict about whether his health would be better served by living in the city to be near doctors and medical facilities, or in a rural area to be closer to nature and away from pollution and chemical exposure. The cast also includes Colleen Rennison, Byron Chief-Moon, Robert Clothier, Jerry Wasserman and Gillian Barber. The film premiered at the Montreal World Film Festival, and was subsequently screened at the 1994 Toronto International Film Festival.
