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
Cherub of the Mist is a documentary film based on the life of two red pandas, Mini and Sweety, who were released into the Singalila National Park in the Darjeeling District, India. The documentary was filmed by Naresh and Rajesh Bedi over 2 years and followed Indian biologist Dr. Sunita Pradhan who at that time had been studying red pandas for over 10 years. It was the first time that someone had filmed the rare red pandas in their natural habitat and shows the animals in courtship, mating, nest building, and the rearing of cubs. The documentary was later adapted into an episode of Mutual of Omaha's Wild Kingdom titled Return of the Firecat. Ajay and Vijay Bedi, the sons of Naresh, were nominated for a News & Documentary Emmy Award for best editing for the episode. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
