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.

What happens
La isla del viento es la primera película sobre Miguel de Unamuno. Dirigida por Manuel Menchón. Fue presentada en la Sección Oficial del 30° Festival Internacional de Cine de Mar del Plata (2015). El largometraje muestra el lado más íntimo y desconocido de Miguel de Unamuno, durante su destierro en Fuerteventura en 1924. También recoge el enfrentamiento en el Paraninfo de la Universidad de Salamanca con Millán Astray en 1936. El personaje de Miguel de Unamuno cobra vida gracias a la memorable interpretación del actor y académico de la RAE, José Luis Gómez. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
