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 married couple discovers a serial killer in their midst and decide to team up with him to make a true crime podcast. Their plan gets more complicated and dangerous as they get further involved.
