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

Schwarzes Blut ist ein kurzer, deutscher Stummfilm von Harry Piel aus dem Jahre 1912. Ein Asiate reist nach Deutschland ein, um sich für ein bitteres Unrecht zu rächen. Dabei kommt es zu reichlich aufregenden Szenen. Die Zensurkarte von damals spricht von „Betäubung. Diebstahl. Entführung. Körperverletzung. Freiheitsberaubung. Giftmischerei.“ (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
