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

This 2008 video from the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints states the church's opposition to same-sex marriage. It encourages church members to support California's Proposition 8, which removed the right for same-sex couples to marry in that state.

What happens

"The Divine Institution of Marriage" is a video production of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS Church). Produced in 2008, the video was broadcast via satellite to LDS Church meetinghouses throughout the world. The video described the position of the LDS Church leadership on the issue of same-sex marriage. The video encouraged the formation of a grassroots campaign within the church to support the passage of California's Proposition 8, a constitutional amendment that eliminated same-sex couples' right to marry in the state of California. LDS Church president Gordon B. Hinckley describes the issue as a matter of morality, not of civil rights. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
