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.
How it feels
A filmmaker travels to Afghanistan in the aftermath of 9/11 to document the hunt for Osama bin Laden. He follows a group of men into dangerous territory and the filming becomes part of a dangerous situation.

What happens
September Tapes is a faux-documentary feature film co-written and directed by Christian Johnston in his feature debut. An early review of the film's promotional trailer noted that the footage looked "more real than network news footage". (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
