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
Harrison's Flowers (French: Les Fleurs d'Harrison) is a 2000 war-romance drama film directed by Elie Chouraqui. It stars, among others, Andie MacDowell, Elias Koteas, Brendan Gleeson, Adrien Brody, Marie Trintignant, Gerard Butler and David Strathairn. The film is also Quinn Shephard's big screen debut. The film premiered at the 2000 San Sebastián International Film Festival, and released in theatres on 24 January 2001 in France. Universal Pictures gave the film a limited theatrical release in the United States on 15 March 2002, then Lionsgate released this film in the United States on DVD in 2007. For this film's United States version, the film's length was reduced by about 5 minutes; it also features a new score by Cliff Eidelman. The film only grossed $3 million in worldwide box office against $8 million production budget, and the overall critical reaction to the film was mixed. However, Adrien Brody said that this film helped him to be cast in the leading role of The Pianist (2002), for which he won the Academy Award for Best Actor. Kino Lorber Studio Classics released the film for the first time on Blu-ray on November 26, 2024. There is a factual error in this film: the character Kyle Morris, played by Adrien Brody, says that Croats are Orthodox and Serbs are Catholic, without being contradicted. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
