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

What happens
Coriolanus is a 2011 film adaptation of William Shakespeare's tragedy Coriolanus. It is directed and produced by Ralph Fiennes in his directorial debut, who also stars as the title character, with Gerard Butler as Tullus Aufidius, Vanessa Redgrave as Volumnia, Brian Cox as Menenius, and Jessica Chastain as Virgilia. It places Shakespeare's original text and plot into a contemporary, pseudo-Balkan setting (filmed in Serbia and Montenegro), reminiscent of the Yugoslav Wars. The film premiered at the 61st Berlin International Film Festival, where it was nominated for the Golden Bear, before being released in the United Kingdom and United States on January 20, 2012. It received positive reviews from critics, with Fiennes nominated for the BAFTA Award for Outstanding Debut. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
