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
This is a weekly Irish-language newsreel that played in cinemas across the Republic of Ireland from 1956 to 1964. It was produced by Gael Linn to promote the Irish language and culture before television became widespread.

What happens
I 1959, sheol Gael Linn Amharc Éireann, nuachtscannán seachtainiúil Gaeilge. Craoladh an nuachtscannán i bpictiúrlanna ar fud na Poblachta ó 1956 go dtí 1964. Léirigh Gael Linn an tsraith ó 1956 ar aghaidh chun an Ghaeilge agus cultúr na hÉireann a chur chun cinn. Sular tháinig an teilifís i réim (tháinig Telefís Éireann ar an bhfód ar 31 Nollaig 1961), taispeánadh na gearrscannáin i bpictiúrlanna ar fud na tíre mar réamhtheacht ar na príomhscannáin, tráth a mbíodh suas le milliún duine ag freastal ar an bpictiúrlann gach seachtain. Roimh Telefís Éireann, ba é Amharc Éireann an t-aon fhoinse nuachta a bhí ann i bpictiúrlanna. Ach níor craoladh riamh iad sa Tuaisceart. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
