The 3D catalogue: film cases on wooden shelves, with the cat sitting at the counter next to its greeting.

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

Heal is a 2017 documentary film that was written and directed by Kelly Noonan-Gores and produced by Richell Morrissey and Adam Schomer. The film focuses on mind–body interventions and follows several individuals who used these techniques after being diagnosed with a fatal disease. It was reviewed by critics as an "infomercial" that makes some valid points while it pretends to be based on science, yet some believe it promotes pseudoscience. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
