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

Kopplingen är en svensk thrillerminiserie i tre delar från 1991 i regi av Thomas Hellberg. I rollerna ses bland andra Hellberg, Jan Malmsjö och Frej Lindqvist. Man kan kalla detta en ytligt maskerad beskrivning av "Bordellhärvan", åtminstone vad beträffar namn och händelser. Man har i vissa fall lekt med huvudpersonernas initialer eller namn, dock en aning omkastade. "Signe Dorff" motsvarar Doris Signe Hopp, medan ministern "Gerhard Lundh" (GL) motsvarar Lennart Geijer (LG). Serien bygger på Thomas Hellbergs och Lars Magnus Janssons roman med samma namn från 1986. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
