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

Pražský student je televizní seriál, který v roce 1990 natočili v koprodukci ČSFR a Jugoslávie režiséři Ladislav Smoljak a Boro Radojčič. Politické turbulence v obou zemích a nedostatek financí vedly k tomu, že postprodukce byla dokončena až roku 1991 a na obrazovkách byl seriál uveden v roce 1992. Seriál vypráví o bosenském mladíkovi Damiru Arslanagićovi (Filip Šovagović), který koncem osmdesátých let přijde do Prahy studovat FAMU. Zamiluje se do české tlumočnice Hany Střelkové (Jana Krausová), seznámí se s řadou českých umělců a disidentů, spolupracuje s Divadlem Járy Cimrmana a stane se svědkem Sametové revoluce. V seriálu hráli Jiří Menzel, Jaroslav Weigel, Ota Ornest, Bohumil Hrabal, Jiřina Steimarová a další, hudbu složil Goran Bregović. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
