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 group of scientists on a remote island investigate a mysterious phenomenon tied to a deterministic theory. They confront questions about fate and choice as their own actions begin to align with the theory's predictions.

What happens
The Laplace's Demon (Italian: Il demone di Laplace) is a 2017 Italian horror science fiction film directed by Giordano Giulivi. It premiered at the Fantasia International Film Festival in Montreal in 2017. The film is inspired by the causal determinism concept of the same name as formulated by Pierre-Simon Laplace and free will plays a central role in the plot. The Laplace's Demon relies heavily on rear-projection (rather than the today more common chroma key/green screen) to insert the actors into the environments. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
