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

『エンジェル・スノー』（原題：하루）は、2001年公開の韓国映画。子どものいない若い夫婦を通して、医療・養子・臓器移植などの問題を扱っている。日本での公開は2002年6月1日。大鐘賞受賞作品。 イタリアの実話をもとに作られたというふれこみだが、実話が難病の子どもを臓器移植によって助けるという話であるのに対し、映画は子どもを臓器業者に売るというストーリーとなっており、「難病の子供」という以外の共通項はない。 (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
