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 piano tuner is hired to care for a strange collection of automata at a remote estate. The eccentric doctor who lives there has abducted a singer and keeps her in a cage. The film follows the tuner's interactions with the doctor and the singer.
