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
Drifters (Chinese: 二弟) is a 2003 film directed by Wang Xiaoshuai. The film is a production of China's People Workshop and Hong Kong's Purple Light Films with international distribution through the Taipei-based company Arc Light Films. Drifters premiered in the 2003 Cannes Film Festival as part of the Un Certain Regard competition. Drifters follows the story of a young slacker, Hong Yunsheng, who has become something of a local celebrity partly due to his repeated failures as a stowaway. After spending several years abroad in the U.S. as an illegal immigrant, Hong returns to his hometown in Fujian. There, Hong attempts to reconnect with his illegitimate son.
