Lincoln County Incident
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
Lincoln County Incident is a 1980 New Zealand film. It was made by staff and students at Christchurch's Lincoln High School led by the schools head of art, Tony Brittenden. It debuted at Cannes Film Festival (television section) in 1980 before getting a local screening at the Academy Cinema and finishing the year at the New Zealand Film Festival. Filming took place in 1974 in the school gym and on location at Castle Hill, followed by years of post production. Much of the work was done by the schools students, staff and parents, such as home economics teacher Rosemary Barnett who made the costumes. Brittenden's brother Rob was brought in for camera and studio sound work and musician Dorothy Buchanan composed and produced the soundtrack. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
