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

El Señor de la Querencia (English: The Lord of the Farm) is a nighttime soap opera broadcast by Televisión Nacional de Chile. El Señor de la Querencia is set in a rural estate in Colina, Chile in 1920. It differs from former Chilean series by the large amounts of domestic violence, sexual abuses, extortions, threats, torture and violence shown as part of the plot. Chilean minister Laura Albornoz expressed her concern about the impact of the repeatedly shown domestic violence and sexual abuses shown in the soap opera. Starring by Julio Milostich as the main villain, as co-protagonist Sigrid Alegría and Álvaro Rudolphy. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
