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 sitcom about a man who sees his everyday life through the lens of famous movies. He and his friends act out film-inspired scenarios in mundane settings, leading to absurd and funny situations.

What happens
My Life in Film is a British television situation-comedy series written by Mark Chappell and originally aired on BBC Three. It was directed by first-time television director Toby MacDonald. It uses iconography, situations and dialogue from films. Some of the show's humour is derived from the deliberate adaptation of these films to everyday settings, leading to preposterous results. The series ran for one season of six episodes in 2004. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
