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
Happy Christmas is a 2014 American independent dramedy film, written, produced and directed by Joe Swanberg. It stars Swanberg, Anna Kendrick, Melanie Lynskey, Mark Webber, and Lena Dunham. Like most of Swanberg's previous features, the film's dialogue was entirely improvised. Christmas had its world premiere at the Sundance Film Festival—where it was nominated for the Grand Jury Prize in the U.S. Dramatic Competition—on January 19, 2014. It was released on June 26, 2014 through VOD, prior to a limited theatrical run in the United States, which began on July 25, 2014. It received generally positive reviews from critics.
