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
The World and the Woman is a 1916 American silent drama film starring Jeanne Eagels as a prostitute who seeks a second chance in the countryside. The film was based on the 1914 play Outcast starring Elsie Ferguson, and was remade in 1922 as Outcast, starring Ferguson; in 1928 with Corinne Griffith, also titled Outcast; and with Bette Davis in 1935 as The Girl from 10th Avenue. The film is unrelated to the 1907 novel bearing the same title written by Ruth Kimball Gardiner. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
