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
A teenage girl living in a trailer park in the 1950s dreams of escaping her dysfunctional family and finding a better life. She navigates relationships with her hard-living mother and a troubled young man.

What happens
Angels in Stardust is a 2014 American coming-of-age comedy-drama film written and directed by William Robert Carey and starring Alicia Silverstone, AJ Michalka and Billy Burke. The film is Carey's directorial debut, and is based on his own novel Jesus in Cowboy Boots, released in 2013. It was released in theaters and on video on demand on February 21, 2014. The film was re-released in 2016 under its original title, Jesus in Cowboy Boots. The "Angels in Stardust" title, invented by the first distributor, was designed to put the film at the beginning of the alphabetical pay-per-view lists. Unfortunately, the title was antithetical to the film's story and themes. In 2021, Carey wrote a memoir, How Not to Make a Movie: An Independent Filmmaker in Hollywood Hell, about his trials and tribulations of making the film. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
