The 3D catalogue: film cases on wooden shelves, with the cat sitting at the counter next to its greeting.

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.

What happens

Zwei himmlische Töchter (English: Two Heavenly Daughters) is a West German television comedy series in six parts. It features two strippers, played by Ingrid Steeger and Iris Berben, who inherited a 1930s-era Junkers Ju 52 cargo airplane (played by Swiss HB‑HOS).
