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 Jews Are Coming (Hebrew: היהודים באים, Hayehudim Ba'im) was an Israeli satirical television series. Each episode consists of several sketches on subjects ranging from Biblical stories, to Jewish Diaspora and Zionist history and Israeli current affairs, with occasional pop culture references such as a sketch featuring a religion centered on "The Dude". The ensemble cast includes such well-known actors as Moni Moshonov, Ido Mosseri and was directed by long time comedy director Kobi Havia (Domino, Echad Ha'am 1). The show's opening sequence featured two male hands preparing a set of traditional circumcision implements. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
