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

Toma Lá, Dá Cá (English: Give-and-Take) is a Brazilian television sitcom created by Maria Carmem Barbosa and Miguel Falabella, which aired on Rede Globo from August 7, 2007, to December 22, 2009, over three seasons. It started as a year-end special, aired on December 29, 2005. The pilot episode spawned an eponymous series, starting August 7, 2007, replacing A Diarista and being replaced by Força-Tarefa. The series was directed by Cininha de Paula, who replaced Mauro Mendonça Filho, with the core director being Roberto Talma. At the time, many considered the series to be a kind of spiritual successor to Sai de Baixo, due to the fact that it also took place in a condominium and had Falabella and also Marisa Orth in the cast. The series stars Falabella, Adriana Esteves, Orth, Diogo Vilela, Arlete Salles, Fernanda Souza, Stella Miranda and Alessandra Maestrini. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
