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
In the near future, a dangerous ghetto is walled off by the government. A man with incredible parkour skills tries to stop a bomb from destroying the district.

What happens
District B13 (French title Banlieue 13 or B13), is a 2004 French action film directed by Pierre Morel, produced by Luc Besson, and written by Besson and Bibi Naceri. It depicts parkour in several action sequences, which was completed without wires or CGI, leading critics to draw comparisons to the Thai film Ong-Bak: The Thai Warrior. David Belle plays Leïto, the story's main character. This is the final film of Tony D'Amario, who plays K2, before his death in 2005. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
