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
Portveien 2 was a children's TV-show produced by NRK, which premiered on 19 March 1985. It has had many reruns, and has become a part of Norwegian TV history. The show produced 140 episodes. The outdoor footage for the series was filmed in a little house in the allotment gardens at Sagene in Oslo, Norway. Portveien 2 is not a real address, the closest street is Kongsvingergata. The series was NRK's first production where the shootings were rationalised, so one could make a large volume of episodes. Portveien 2 was an attempt to make a children's show for the youngest children and at the same time engage the whole family. The themes in the shows were generally attached to nature, but also to fairytales, traditions, feelings and other social relationships. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
