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.
How it feels
This miniseries follows FBI and CIA agents as they try to track down Al-Qaeda operatives in the years leading up to 9/11. It focuses on the rivalry between the two agencies and how that hampers their efforts.
