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

Vlak dětství a naděje (The Train of Childhood and Hope) is a Czechoslovak television series directed by Karel Kachyňa first broadcast in 1989 with Stanislav Zindulka, Žaneta Fuchsová, Tereza Brodská and Helena Růžičková in the main roles. The series is based on Věra Sládková's novel trilogy Malý muž a velká žena (Little Man and Big Woman), parts of which are The Last Train from Frývaldov (1974), The Regiments of Evil (1975) and The Child of a Freewoman (1982). Although the series was filmed in 1985, it was not broadcast until 1989 due to censorship. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
