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 woman develops a split personality after being possessed by a vengeful spirit from a palace legend. As her mind creates a violent alter ego, her family tries to stop her from acting out the spirit's murderous urges.

What happens
Rajmohol is a 2005 Indian Bengali-language psychological horror film starring Prosenjit Chatterjee, Abhishek Chatterjee, Anu Choudhury, Rachana Banerjee, Biplab Chatterjee, Subhasish Mukherjee, and Bharat Kaul. An adaptation of the 1993 Malayalam film Manichitrathazhu, having slight plot changes involving not only awareness of split personality disease but also the existence of Chandramukhi's vengeful spirit. Another interesting fact making this version more realistic is that although Deboshree is a non-dancer in reality, her illness causes her to imagine she is the character Chandramukhi. In her mind, she is performing a perfect classical dance, but physically, she dances in an erratic and untrained way. This contrast makes the scene more realistic, as it shows her mental state rather than a sudden, magical talent. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
