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 drifting cowhand named Dave Blassingame wanders the old West with his dog, taking odd jobs and meeting people. The show follows his quiet, aimless travels and the small moments he encounters along the way.
