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

Peckham Finishing School for Girls is a British TV documentary series, broadcast in 2010 on BBC Three. The series followed four young women from privileged families aged between 22 and 26, featuring Stephanie, Serena, Claire and Cat, as they travelled to Peckham to live with and experience the lifestyle of their new 'Peckham Sisters' Lashan, Kerri, Aleisha and Sarah, who come from much less affluent backgrounds. In the series, the Peckham neighbourhood is portrayed as rough and dangerous. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
