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
Canada Russia '72 is a 2006 Canadian docudrama miniseries about the 1972 Summit Series, a series of exhibition ice hockey games between state amateurs of the Soviet Union and professional players from Canada. The two-part miniseries was directed by T. W. Peacocke and written by Barrie Dunn and Malcolm MacRury. Canada Russia '72 first aired on CBC on April 9–10, 2006. The title is historically inaccurate as the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics was the official name of the country until 1991. During the Soviet era, the Russian Soviet Federative Socialist Republic, was just one of 15 constituent republics of the country. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
