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 woman named Maria marries a wealthy businessman who only wants her for his own benefit. He mistreats and embarrasses her, but she hides his behavior from her father and the public. She finds comfort with a ship's lieutenant, and they fall in love but agree not to be together. After she becomes pregnant, Maria decides to follow him to the sea, leading to dramatic events.
