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
The story follows three generations of a German-Italian family from 1954 to 2019. It shows how their lives and relationships are shaped by migration, cultural ties, and personal dreams.

What happens
Bella Germania ("Beautiful Germany" in Italian) is a 2019 German 3-part miniseries directed by Gregor Schnitzler, based on Daniel Speck's 2016 book of the same name. The series, consisting of three 90-minute episodes, narrates a German-Italian family story through three generations over 65 years (1954-2019). The series premiered in Germany on ZDF in March 2019, with the episodes shown on 10, 11 and 13 March. In Italy, the series was first shown on Rai 1 on 3–4 June 2019, edited into two 135-minute episodes, under the name "Volevamo andare lontano - Bella Germania" (loosely translated as "We wanted to get far away"), which was the original Italian title for the Daniel Speck's book.
