The 3D catalogue: film cases on wooden shelves, with the cat sitting at the counter next to its greeting.

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 Parisian reads about a potato bread recipe in the newspaper and asks his baker to make it. The baker is skeptical but bakes the bread anyway, and the man gets terrible stomach pain from eating it. To make up for it, the baker gives him some normal French bread later.
