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.
How it feels
A little girl gets out of bed to get her doll. A dress catches fire by accident and the blaze spreads quickly as the frightened child hides under the covers. Firemen race to the house and break through a wall to save her.

What happens
Firemen to the Rescue è un cortometraggio muto del 1903 diretto da Cecil M. Hepworth. Una bambina si alza dal letto per andare a prendere la sua bambola. Accidentalmente, un vestito prende fuoco. La piccola, terrorizzata, si infila sotto le coperte mentre il fuoco si propaga rapidamente. Alla stazione dei vigili suona l'allarme, tutti i pompieri si precipitano in strada con il loro carro: per salvare la bambina, due vigili del fuoco devono sfondare una parete ma la bimba è salva.
