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
Divine Love (Portuguese: Divino Amor) is a 2019 Brazilian drama film directed by Gabriel Mascaro. It was screened in the World Cinema Dramatic Competition section at the 2019 Sundance Film Festival.

As she waits for a sign of recognition for all her efforts, a marital crisis of her own brings her even closer to God. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
