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
Panorama du grand Canal pris d'un bateau ("Panorama del Canal Grande visto da un battello") è un cortometraggio del 1896 diretto da Alexandre Promio. Si tratta di una breve ripresa effettuata il 25 ottobre del 1896 lungo il Canal Grande nella città di Venezia, con la telecamera a bordo di una gondola. Il film ebbe la sua première il 13 dicembre 1897 a Lione. Fu molto probabilmente il primo film mai realizzato con una macchina da presa in movimento. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
