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
This is a very short silent film from 1887. It shows a woman opening an umbrella in a sequence of still photographs arranged to create the illusion of movement. The film was made as part of Eadweard Muybridge's study of how people and animals move.

What happens
Woman Opening Umbrella (em tradução livre, Mulher abrindo guarda-chuva) é um filme mudo britânico em curta-metragem realizado em 1887, parte do estudo do inventor e fotógrafo Eadweard Muybridge à respeito da locomoção humana e animal. Não se trata de um filme como entendemos hoje, mas de uma sequência de fotografias de apenas alguns segundos, dispostas de forma a criar a impressão de movimento. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
