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 wealthy old man who has been sick for years learns from his doctor that he will not recover. He decides to settle his affairs and is glad to see his daughter and his young business partner seem to like each other. The partner goes to Europe just before the bad news comes, so the father makes a will that gives most of his money to the daughter only if she marries the partner within a year of his death.
