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 boy is shrunk to miniature size and travels across Sweden on the back of a goose. He learns about nature and friendship while trying to break the spell that made him small.

What happens
The Wonderful Adventures of Nils (ニルスのふしぎな旅, Nirusu no Fushigi na Tabi) is an anime adaptation of the 1906 novel The Wonderful Adventures of Nils by Swedish author Selma Lagerlöf. The 52-episode series aired on the Japanese network NHK from January 1980 to March 1981. It was the first production by Studio Pierrot. The anime largely follows the original story, with the addition of Nils's pet hamster and an expanded role for Smirre the fox. The music was composed by Czech musician Karel Svoboda, while Chito Kawachi provided the soundtrack for the original Japanese broadcast and several international versions. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
