The 3D catalogue: film cases on wooden shelves, with the cat sitting at the counter next to its greeting.

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

We Are Family is a 2010 Indian Hindi-language family drama film directed by Siddharth P. Malhotra and produced by Hiroo Yash Johar and Karan Johar under Dharma Productions. It was co-produced and distributed by Sony Pictures Entertainment and UTV Motion Pictures. An official Indian adaptation of the 1998 American film Stepmom, the film stars Kajol, Kareena Kapoor, and Arjun Rampal in lead roles. Initially scheduled for release on 10 September 2010, the film was advanced to 3 September to avoid clashing with Dabangg (2010). Upon release, We Are Family received generally positive reviews from critics, with particular acclaim for the performances of Kajol and Kapoor. However, it underperformed commercially, grossing around ₹42 crore worldwide against a budget of ₹28 crore. At the 56th Filmfare Awards, Kapoor won the Best Supporting Actress award for her role. A promotional mobile video game based on the film was developed and released by Indiagames, a subsidiary of UTV Software Communications. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
