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 short silent comedy about two men who compete for the attention of two women after a train arrives. One man gets left behind when he forgets his suitcase, then later finds the others at a restaurant where the rivalry continues.

What happens
Lindstrøms skuespil er en dansk stum komediefilm fra 1912 instrueret af Peter Elfelt. To fine damer med store hatte venter på togperron. De tager imod to velklædte herrer, som ankommer med toget. Selskabet forlader perronen for at praje en vogn. De to mænd kæmper om at komme ind i bilen først, hvor på den ene mand, den lille, tykke (spillet af Viggo Lindstrøm), kommer i tanke om, at han har glemt sin kuffert på perronen. Han henter den og skynder sig tilbage. Men de andre er i mellemtiden kørt uden ham. Sceneskift til en restaurant (i Tivoli?), hvor den høje, slanke mand og de to damer hygger sig. Manden med kufferten dukker forpustet op, og mændene begynder at kæmpe om den samme kvindes gunst, mens den anden kvinde ignoreres. Den tynde vinder. Til sidst forlader de restauranten med hver deres kvinde under armen. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
