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.

It was released on Viaplay in the Nordic countries on 1 March 2019 and has since been broadcast/streamed in several other countries. The series revolves around criminal profiler Louise Bergstein's (Natalie Madueño) attempts to link unsolved murders. The series is a reboot of the crime thriller of the same name that was created by Elsebeth Egholm and aired on TV 2 in 2011. Madueño reprises her role as Louise across three further seasons. The second season (2021) was distributed as Blinded: Those Who Kill in some regions. It has Helle Fagralid joining the cast as Karina Hørup, the lead detective, and Tobias Santelmann as sawmill worker, Peter Vinge. The third season (2023) is also known as Lost: Those Who Kill, which introduces Simon Sears as senior detective Frederik Havgaard. It features Thit Aaberg as Maria Jepsen, whose mother Therese is killed. The fourth season (2024) has Sears reprising his role of Frederik, who becomes Louise's love interest; the series is referred to as Justice: Those Who Kill in some markets. Dag Malmberg joins the cast as Gunnar Nymark, a Swedish criminal profiler consulted by Louise. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
