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

A Class Apart or Zebrarummet (literally: The Zebra Room), is a Swedish television drama series, which was broadcast from 22 August 2021 on Viaplay. It was created by Henrik Schyffert and Gustaf Skördeman and directed by Andrea Östlund, David Berron and Erik Eger. Filming occurred from November 2020 in Gothenburg and neighbouring Lerum and Härryda. Global distribution is handled by Banijay Rights for Jarowskij Productions. It was available for streaming on Australia's SBS-TV's On Demand from 2 June 2022. A Class Apart is largely set in an elite private school, Tuna Kvarn, which has a not-so-secret Zebra Club led by Hugo (Valter Skarsgård) and Caroline (Alva Bratt) with fellow member Philip (Edvin Endre). Their entitled lifestyle includes smoking, drug-taking and promiscuity. Hugo and Caroline initiate new club members Robin (Anton Forsdik) and Nathalie (Amanda Lindh). Sara (Aliette Opheim) is a school counsellor at nearby public school, Holmered, who transfers to Tuna Kvarn. Series creator, Schyffert also portrays Carl, Tuna Kvarn's CEO and Hugo's father.
