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

Nagmamahal, Kapamilya was a Philippine television public service drama anthology series broadcast by ABS-CBN. Hosted by Bernadette Sembrano, it premiered on April 18, 2006, and was originally aired on Tuesday nights before being moved to the network's Saturday afternoon lineup from July 8, 2006 to October 13, 2007. The theme song, "Dahil Nagmamahal", was performed by Sheryn Regis from her second album, What I Do Best. During its initial five months, Nagmamahal, Kapamilya showcased the lives of overseas Filipinos through dramatized storytelling. In November 2006, approximately four months after transitioning to a Saturday timeslot, the program underwent a format change. It shifted to a documentary style, incorporating real footage to depict the emotional reunions of Filipino families and featuring interviews with notable Filipino personalities who had gained recognition abroad.
