The 3D catalogue: film cases on wooden shelves, with the cat sitting at the counter next to its greeting.

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 film is already out on the counter, with more like it waiting on the shelf next to it.

What happens

Une jeune fille romanesque est un court métrage muet français réalisé par Louis Gasnier en 1910. Impressionnée par Arsène Lupin, Miss Dolly déclare à ses prétendants qu'elle épousera celui qui fera un exploit digne de son héros. Max invite tout le monde à diner, avec comme pari de partir sans payer. Au moment de l'addition, il joue à Colin-maillard avec le garçon et celui qu'il attrapera payera. Seulement la bande en profite pour filer en douce. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
