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
Pokémon the Movie: Secrets of the Jungle is a 2020 Japanese anime film based on Satoshi Tajiri's Pokémon media franchise and produced by OLM. It is the twenty-third film of the Pokémon anime series, the third and final film in the alternate timeline trilogy and a sequel to Pokémon the Movie: The Power of Us. The film returns to the series’ traditional 2D art style rather than using the CGI animation used in Mewtwo Strikes Back: Evolution. It features the new Generation VIII Mythical Pokémon Zarude and a shiny Celebi. In Japan, the film was released on December 25, 2020, by Toho. The original release date of July 10, 2020, was delayed due to the COVID-19 pandemic in Japan. The film released worldwide (excluding Japan, Korea and China) on Netflix on October 8, 2021. For a limited time, if players of Pokémon Sword and Shield preordered tickets for this film's premiere, they would receive the Mythical Pokémon Zarude in its "Dada" form and a Shiny Celebi. As of 2026, this is the final Pokémon anime movie to be produced and released, as The Pokémon Company has not made plans for any more new Pokémon anime films since. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
