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
Family Circles (Les Parents) is a 1949 short documentary film directed by Morten Parker and produced by Gudrun Parker and Tom Daly for the National Film Board of Canada. The film shows how the interplay of home and school influences the development of children. The experiences of three children illustrate vividly how parental indifference, lack of imagination, and emotional conflict at home can destroy the confidence and enthusiasm necessary for a child's success at school.
