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

Killed by My Debt is a 2018 BBC Three drama film based on the life of Jerome Rogers who died by suicide aged twenty, having accrued debts of over £1,000. The debt was executed by Andrew Maughan of The London Borough of Camden, & Mike Marrs of Marston Holdings Ltd, stemming from two unpaid £65 traffic fines. The film was written by Tahsin Güner who worked closely with the Rogers family. Joseph Bullman was the director. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
