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

BeTipul (Hebrew: בטיפול; lit. In Therapy) is an Israeli television drama, winner of the Television Academy Award, revolving around the personal and professional life of an Israeli psychologist, Reuven Dagan, played by Assi Dayan. The series portrays a psychologist who treats patients at his clinic five days a week and then seeks psychological treatment for himself. Filmmaker Ori Sivan served as the head writer of the series together with Hagai Levi and Nir Bergman. Following the show's success it was bought by HBO, which remade an American version (In Treatment) which was aired two years later. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
