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
Protéa, a patriotic detective skilled in disguise and jiu-jitsu, goes on a mission. The film has many intertitles and a confusing story.

What happens
L'Intervention de Protéa est un film muet français réalisé par Jean-Joseph Renaud, sorti en 1919. Ce film d'espionnage en quatre parties est le cinquième et dernier épisode de la série Protéa mettant en scène une détective patriote, adepte des déguisements et pratiquant le jiu-jitsu (Josette Andriot, dont c'est le dernier film). Il souffre d'une certaine incohérence du scénario et du très grand nombre d'intertitres — plus d'une centaine — parfois très longs. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
