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

Red Nose (French: Nez rouge) is a 2003 Canadian romantic comedy film, directed by Érik Canuel. Starring Patrick Huard as Félix Legendre, an acerbic literary critic, and Michèle-Barbara Pelletier as Céline Bourgeois, a writer whose most recent work he harshly trashed, the film traces their journey from hate at first sight to falling in love when they are unexpectedly assigned as each other's partners while volunteering for Quebec's annual Opération Nez rouge Christmas driving service. The film's cast also includes Pierre Lebeau, Jacques Godin, Christian Bégin, Caroline Dhavernas, Sylvain Marcel, Stéphane Breton, Frédéric Desager and Dany Laferrière. Claudette Casavant received a Prix Jutra nomination for Best Makeup, at the 6th Jutra Awards, for her work on the film. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
