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 narrator introduces short clips from very old silent films. The movie shows funny moments and everyday scenes from the early 1900s. Some of the clips have wrong titles.

What happens
Yesterday and Today is a 1953 United Artists American compilation film produced and directed by Abner J. Greshler and narrated by George Jessel. The film consists mostly of brief clips from silent short films from the first decade of the 20th century. The film compiles footage from two previous British compilation films, Those Were the Days and Return Fare to Laughter, both 1951 products of Butcher's Film Service, interspersed with introductions and commentary by Jessel. However, many of the clips are misidentified. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
