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 team of elite LAPD detectives use brutal methods to keep order in 1950s Los Angeles. After one of them gets involved with a mysterious woman, her death sends them into a web of corruption and cover-ups.
