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
A miserly old man named Ebenezer Scrooge is visited by the ghost of his dead business partner on Christmas Eve. The ghost shows him his past, present, and future to try to make him change his ways.

What happens
A Christmas Carol is a 1910 silent drama film directed by J. Searle Dawley and produced at Edison Studios in The Bronx in New York City. After the 1901 British release Scrooge, or, Marley's Ghost, this American version of Charles Dickens' 1843 novella is the second oldest surviving screen adaptation of the famous literary work. It features Marc McDermott as Ebenezer Scrooge and Charles S. Ogle as Bob Cratchit. The film is approximately 13 minutes long and was produced as a one-reel silent film, a standard format for the era. Similar to many films of the era, it was staged similar to a play with a stationary camera and actors performing full view in frame. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
