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

The Family is an Australian fly-on-the-wall documentary series that began airing 24 November 2011 on SBS One. It is the Australian version of the British series of the same name. The first series will follow the Cardamone family—father Angelo, mother Josephine, and sons David (20), Stefan (18), and Adrian (14)--through their daily lives. They have allowed 35 remote-controlled cameras to follow their every move, day and night, for three months. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
