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
In 16th century England, a hunchbacked lawyer named Matthew Shardlake investigates a murder at a monastery. He works for Thomas Cromwell during the turbulent reign of Henry VIII. The show is a four-part mystery series based on the books by C. J. Sansom.
