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.

What happens
《浮生六劫》（英語：Gone With the Wind）為香港麗的電視在1980年2月首播的一齣電視劇集，全劇共76集。是麗的電視繼《變色龍》劇集之後另一個收視高峰，下開九月「千帆並舉」攻勢，以《大地恩情之家在珠江》一劇使無綫電視劇集《輪流傳》腰斬。 本劇以1950年至1970年代的香港作為歷史背景，當時香港尚是一個難民社會，大部分居民都是因為國共內戰以及逃避中華人民共和國成立後一連串政治事件而來，時局相當動盪，不少市井人民力爭上游，劇中主角程瑞祥由難民一名，身無分文，但生性好酒，更在大醉之下將自己妻子以五十元賣給別人。後來變成企業家，即為一例。劇情又輔以本地主要的廣東人，與1949年後、帶著大批現金流亡香港的上海人的鬥爭穿插其中。劇中每個角色的遭遇，都可能是每一個香港人的寫照，亦可謂道盡了香港人的心聲。 (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
