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.
How it feels
An advertisement for a female employee draws a huge crowd of over fifty applicants. They storm the office and overwhelm the police who try to control them.

What happens
Hiring a Girl è un cortometraggio muto del 1909. Il nome del regista non viene riportato nei credit del film. Un annuncio per cercare una donna come impiegata fa arrivare oltre una cinquantina di candidate che assediano l'ufficio, tanto da far intervenire la polizia, impotente però contro un tale uragano.
