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 12 year old boy named Martin moves to Africa to live with his estranged father after his mother dies. The father is focused on his job managing a wildlife reserve, but Martin forms friendships with locals and together they face the disappearance of elephants which brings father and son closer.

What happens
Le Maître des éléphants est un film français de 1995 réalisé par Patrick Grandperret. À la mort de sa mère, Martin, adolescent de douze ans, rejoint en Afrique un père qu'il ne connaît pas. Reçu plutôt fraîchement par ce père plus préoccupé par la réserve dont il a la charge que de ce nouveau fils, Martin va découvrir ce pays et ses contradictions grâce à l'amitié de Fofana et Victor. La disparition des éléphants va rapprocher le père et le fils. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
