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

What happens
The Grand Military Parade és una pel·lícula documental estatunidenca muda en blanc i negre del 1913 dirigida per King Vidor i produïda per Mutual Film Corporation, en el que va ser la seva segona o potser primera pel·lícula. Aleshores era representant del setmanari Mutual Weekly. Amb una càmera prestada situada dalt d'un magatzem de cotó i dues bobines va signar "la major concentració de tropes de la història de l'exèrcit dels Estats Units" en una carretera llarga i recta que s'enfonsava a la vall.
