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
Kan man dø i himlen er en dansk børnefilm fra 2005 med instruktion og manuskript af Erlend E. Mo. Jonathan er 11 år og tænker mere over tingene, end de fleste af hans jævnaldrende. Da han var 8 år, begik hans far selvmord. Jonathan fik, som han selv udtrykker det, et kæmpechok, for faderen var ikke god til at tale om sine problemer. Ikke længe efter selvmordet, får Jonathan konstateret knoglekræft og må i gang med en langvarig sygdoms- og behandlingsperiode. Med mod, humor, livskraft og åbenhed, står Jonathan, hans mor og hans to brødre sammen om at arbejde sig igennem sorgen og sygdommen. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
