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 series is already out on the counter, with more like it waiting on the shelf next to it.
How it feels
A young orphan named Jane Eyre grows up in harsh conditions and eventually becomes a governess at Thornfield Hall. There she falls in love with the brooding master Mr. Rochester, but a dark secret in his past threatens their relationship.

What happens
Jane Eyre is a six-part 1956 British TV adaptation of the 1847 novel by Charlotte Brontë. Unlike most BBC programming of the 1950s, the series survives intact, but had not been shown publicly in decades beyond a single 55 second clip on BBC iPlayer, until a complete bootlegged copy of all six episodes was uploaded to YouTube on 5 June 2025.
