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

SpangaS (also known as SpangaS: De Campus) was a Dutch youth series, created by Anya Koek for the NCRV. The television series revolved around the lives of a group of students at Spangalis College. Episodes revolved around a wide range of student activities and personal drama during secondary education. The program was similar in format and subject matter to the Canadian series DeGrassi but with a more lighthearted feel aimed towards tweenagers and younger teens. A SpangaS movie, SpangaS op Survival, premiered on September 30, 2009. The plot focuses on the students' trip to the Belgian Ardennes. A stand-alone sequel, SpangaS in Actie, was released in 2015. A SpangaS theater show, SpangaS Live!, ran from April to June 2011. In 2020, the school was replaced by "De Campus", where students slept during weekdays. On March 14, 2022 it was announced that the series will be cancelled after a fifteen-year-run. The last episode was broadcast on April 28. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
