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

Girl Fight is a television film that premiered on Lifetime on October 3, 2011. Inspired by true events, It stars Jodelle Ferland as Haley Macklin. The film revolves around a bullied and troubled 16-year-old girl (Ferland) who tries to fit in with a popular group of girls, leading to a brutal beating upon joining the clique. The film was inspired by a 2008 beating in Florida; a video of some of the beating, released by Polk County Sheriff Grady Judd, was used heavily by the news media and the story caused nationwide public outrage. Anne Heche and James Tupper, who play Haley's parents, were a couple in real life until their split in 2018. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
