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

Pendant quatre ans, un réalisateur documentaire est sur les traces de Miché, Valencia, sa mère, et Amy, sa grand-mère. Ces trois générations de la famille Moses vivent ensemble dans un des bidonvilles du Cap. A 11 ans, Miché sourit à la caméra : le monde est à ses pieds. Mais avec le temps et les problèmes de famille qui vont grandissant, la violence et la drogue s’invitent dans la vie de Miché. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
