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 stuntman plans to launch a small plane off the roof of a speeding car. A newspaper sends a photographer to cover the event, along with a truck carrying a device that can transmit photos over a telephone wire. The film explains how this new transmission process works.
