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

Nekrotronic (formerly Nekromancer) is a 2018 Australian comedy science-fiction horror film. It was co-written and directed by Kiah Roache-Turner, and stars Ben O'Toole and Monica Bellucci. It tells the story of demons that steal people's souls through smartphone apps, and the demon-hunters out to kill them. It was intended to be a mashup of Ghostbusters, The Matrix, and The Exorcist. The story was inspired by the ICE of William Gibson's Neuromancer. The film premiered at the 2018 Toronto International Film Festival. In September 2019, it had its Australian debut at the SciFi Film Festival in Sydney. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
