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
The Beaches of Agnès (French: Les plages d'Agnès) is a 2008 French documentary film directed by Agnès Varda. The film is an autobiographical essay, in which Varda revisits places from her past, reminisces about her life and work, and celebrates her 80th birthday on camera. She said it would most likely be her last film, but subsequently released several projects, including the Oscar-nominated documentary Faces Places (2017). (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
