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
A woman named Hiroko works as an office clerk and lives a regular life. She secretly cherishes a faceless male mannequin as if it were her lover. Her free-spirited younger sister Mina moves in and disrupts her peaceful daily routine.

What happens
『トルソ』は、2010年に劇場公開された日本映画。 アパレル会社で事務員として働くOL・ヒロコは、携帯も持たず、合コンにも行かず、しかしそれらに不満もなく、規則正しい毎日を送っていた。ただ、そんなヒロコには人に言えない変わった性癖ともいえる秘密があった。彼女は家に帰るとトルソと呼ばれる顔も手も足もない男性型の人形を心と体の拠り所にして恋人のように慈しんでいるのだった。ところがある日、ヒロコとは性格が正反対ともいえる自由奔放で縛られる生活を嫌う妹・ミナが家に押しかけてきた。過去に確執のあったミナの言動は現実逃避をしていた心を揺らがせ、静かだった日常を掻き乱し始めてしまう。 (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
