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
The Guilty (Danish: Den skyldige) is a 2018 Danish crime thriller film written by Gustav Möller and Emil Nygaard Albertsen and directed by Möller in his directorial debut. It premiered in the World Cinema Dramatic Competition section of the 2018 Sundance Film Festival, and was later selected as the Danish submission for the Best International Feature Film at the 91st Academy Awards, making the December shortlist. The Guilty is a drama that unfolds entirely within the confines of an emergency call center, with Jakob Cedergren in the central role of Asger Holm, a distressed Copenhagen police officer with a pending court hearing for use of deadly force, who handles incoming 112 emergency calls. The tension and drama of the film are largely conveyed through the telephone conversations that Asger Holm engages in. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
