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 series is already out on the counter, with more like it waiting on the shelf next to it.
How it feels
A woman works behind the counter of a grocery store in 1970s Czechoslovakia. The show follows her daily life, interactions with customers, and the challenges of socialist-era retail work. It is remembered especially for a brief erotic scene that drew official criticism.
