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
This documentary looks at industrial forestry in France and the shift to monoculture tree farming. It contrasts modern practices with the traditional forests that are disappearing.

What happens
Le Temps des forêts est un film documentaire de François-Xavier Drouet de 2018 qui dénonce la « mal-forestation » et la monoculture forestière résultant d'une sylviculture industrielle. Par son titre, en écho à la chanson Le temps des cerises, le documentaire exprime la nostalgie d'une certaine forêt chérie, en voie de disparition. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
