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
The filmmaker Steven Delano explores his own experience with dwarfism after ignoring it for decades. He interviews several people about how little people are portrayed in media and whether genetic engineering should eliminate the condition.

What happens
No Bigger than a Minute is a 2006 documentary film about dwarfs in the media as well as filmmaker Steven Delano's own cathartic effort to deal with his dwarfism, something he ignored for almost forty years. Delano interviews actor Peter Dinklage, director Werner Herzog, and rapper Bushwick Bill as he deals with the question: If genetic engineering can weed out the condition, is that something we would want to do? No Bigger than a Minute had its television premiere in 2006 as part of PBS's Point of View series. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
