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 documentary set in a decaying Russian village where a few elderly women and an alcoholic old man remain. It focuses on the daily life of two old sisters, one who has cared for the other since childhood, and a young woman who is pregnant, with the villagers believing the father is an angel.

What happens
«Благодать» — российский документальный фильм режиссёра Виталия Манского, снятый в 1995 году. Действие происходит на фоне скудного быта пришедшей в упадок русской деревни, где остались несколько женщин и пожилой мужчина-алкоголик. Здесь живут две старухи, младшая из которых, Прасковья, всю свою жизнь посвятила своей старшей сестре Марии, которая в раннем детстве перестала расти. Единственная молодая женщина в деревне ждёт ребёнка: все полагают, что от ангела. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
