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

Philippines’ Next Top Model (abbreviated PNTM and PhNTM) is a Filipino reality competition where aspiring models compete for the title of Philippines' Next Top Model and a chance to begin their career in the modeling industry. The first season (referred to as "cycles") premiered on RPN on March 13, 2007. In late 2012, ETC announced a second local Top Model adaptation, called Top Model Philippines with a complete set of judges, but it was suspended in June 2013. However, the second cycle, renamed Philippines' Next Top Model: High Street started airing on March 21, 2017, on TV5. The first cycle of the series was presented by Ruffa Gutierrez, with cycle 2 being presented by Maggie Wilson. The series employs a panel of four to six judges. The original panel consisted of Gutierrez, Wilma Doesnt, Pauline Sauco, Robby Carmona, Vince Uy, and Xander Angeles before the entire panel was replaced with Wilson, Kylie Verzosa, Rainer Dagala, and Raphael Kiefer in cycle 2. The first and second cycle comprised a cast of between 12 and 14 female contestants with no previous participation on the series. As of May 2017, two models won the competition; Grendel Alvarado and Angela Lehmann. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
