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

『押絵と旅する男』（おしえとたびするおとこ）は、江戸川乱歩の著した短編小説である。『新青年』1929年（昭和4年）6月号に掲載された。乱歩は自作の評価に厳しいことで有名だが、この作品に関しては「ある意味では、私の短篇の中ではこれが一番無難だといってよいかも知れない」と珍しく肯定的な言葉を残している。 (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
