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

L'Affaire Villemin est une mini-série française en six épisodes de 52 minutes, sur un scénario de Pascal Bonitzer et Raoul Peck, réalisée par Raoul Peck en 2005 et diffusée sur France 3 entre le 28 et le 30 octobre 2006, puis rediffusée sur Arte en février-mars 2008. Elle s'inspire de deux livres, Le Seize octobre de Jean-Marie Villemin, Christine Villemin et Laurent Beccaria, et Le Bûcher des innocents de Laurence Lacour, qui couvrait l'affaire Grégory en qualité de correspondante d'Europe 1 au moment des faits.
