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 Difficult Woman is an Australian television series which screened in 1998 on the ABC. The four part series starred Caroline Goodall, in the title role of a woman whose best friend is murdered and is determined to find out why. It was written by Nicholas Hammond and Steven Vidler and directed by Tony Tilse. Simon Hughes of the Age wrote "That is the quibble about A Difficult Woman. That in seeking to cover all bases, it overeggs the pudding. For all that, it is impressive." (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
