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
For the Record is a Canadian comedy drama web series, which premiered in 2020 on CBC Gem. Created by Julian De Zotti, the six-episode anthology series centres on the emotional role of music in people's lives, with each episode focusing on a character facing a significant personal moment and the song that soundtracks it. The cast includes De Zotti, Lisa Baylin, Anna Hopkins, Karen LeBlanc, Kira Clavell, Maurice Dean Wint, Moni Ogunsuyi, Theresa Tova, Phil Borg, Lyriq Bent, Alexandra Beaton, Uni Park, Johnny Orlando, Melissa McNerney, Justine Nelson, Alannah Ong, Brynn Chamblee, Tashi Simmons and Neil Lu.
