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

Der Ermittler is a German television series set in Hamburg, featuring a team of investigators led by Chief Inspector Paul Zorn. His colleague Eva Klaussner and their superior, Director of Criminal Investigation Henning Peters from the Hamburg homicide squad, were also part of the team. In the 2004 season, forensic pathologist Dr. Tina Jaeger and trainee detective inspector Tim Rasch joined the group. Writers of the individual episodes received contributions from authors including Eva and Volker A. Zahn, Johannes Dräxler, Remy Eyssen, and Eva and Horst Kummeth. To ensure a diverse range of perspectives, various directors were involved in the creation of different episodes. The series consisted of a total of five seasons, each comprising six episodes, except for the final season which had five episodes. These episodes were produced and aired on ZDF.
