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
Mulan: Rise of a Warrior (simplified Chinese: 花木兰; traditional Chinese: 花木蘭; pinyin: Huā Mùlán), also known as Mulan: Legendary Warrior, is a 2009 Chinese action war film starring Zhao Wei as the titular protagonist. The director, Jingle Ma, explained that the film is vastly different from the 1998 Walt Disney animated film and stated, "Zhao Wei's appearance is closer to that in my imagination". Zhao Wei was cast by Ma as Hua Mulan over previously considered actresses Zhang Ziyi, Michelle Yeoh, and Liu Yifei, the latter of whom would later play the titular character in Disney's remake of the 1998 animated film.
