The 3D catalogue: film cases on wooden shelves, with the cat sitting at the counter next to its greeting.

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

Annabelle's Wish is a 1997 American direct-to-video animated Christmas film that revolves around a young calf who aspires to fly like one of Santa Claus's reindeer, while forming a friendship with Billy, a young boy who cannot talk. Narrated by American country singer Randy Travis, it also stars voice actress Kath Soucie as the voice of Annabelle and also features the voices of Jerry Van Dyke, Jim Varney and Clancy Brown. Ralph Edwards Films released the film to video on October 21, 1997, followed by a television broadcast later that year on Fox. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
