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

Queens of Panguru is a New Zealand reality television mini series that airs on Māori Television. The show focused on the personal lives of three cousins Jay Tewake, Ramon Te Wake and Maihi Makiha. They are from the LGBT community in Auckland, but they returned home to their small town of Panguru. Its premise originated with Mika X, who also served as an executive producer. The series debuted on March 22, 2017, with only five episodes in the series. All three drag queens are related through notable tribe leader Heremia Te Wake, who was the father of respected kuia (Māori elder), Dame Whina Cooper. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
