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
A man finds himself involved in an unusual romantic situation. The short film is based on a story by W. P. Kinsella.

What happens
Lieberman in Love is a 1995 American short film directed by Christine Lahti. It won an Oscar in 1996 for Best Live Action Short Subject. A short story by W. P. Kinsella, "Lieberman in Love", was the basis for the film. The Oscar win came as a surprise to Kinsella, who, watching the award telecast from home, had no idea the film had been made and released. He was not listed in the film's credits or acknowledged by Lahti in her acceptance speech. A full-page advertisement ran in Variety apologizing to Kinsella for the error. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
