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.

The film centers on interviews of two adults who once identified as transgender, but later reverted to identify with the sex they were assigned at birth. It has been described by LGBTQ organization Human Rights Campaign's president as "propaganda" to "spread misinformation and stigmatize transgender people". (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
