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
Set in early 20th century Guangxi, this series follows the lives and loves of people in a tea-growing region. It focuses on family ties and personal sacrifice amid rural traditions.

What happens
《茶是故鄉濃》（英語：Plain Love II）是香港電視廣播有限公司拍攝製作的清末民初劇集，全劇共32集，監製劉仕裕，此劇為無綫電視32週年台慶劇。 此劇取景的地方主要包括中國廣西壯族自治區、賀州姑婆山國家森林公園、賀州市沙田鎮，賀街鎮，黃田鎮，蓮塘鎮及鵝塘鎮、廣西昭平縣黃姚鎮、昭平縣將軍峰茶廠、鐘山縣望高鎮及公安鎮等地。當中的拍攝曾獲贺州地区电视台、黃洞瑤族鄉政府、昭平縣黃姚鎮廣西工委的支持。據《K-100》在此劇拍攝期間的介紹，此劇曾暫名作《情濃大地II》，而此劇類型亦與1995年播放的《情濃大地》相同。 此劇於1999年播出時，收視不但壓倒《創世紀》，結局篇的收視比例亦高達91%，林家棟飾演的方有為更獲得「2000年度我最喜愛的電視角色」。由於《茶是故鄉濃》收視理想，翌年開拍精神续作《酒是故鄉醇》。 此剧“谢虎彪”一角原定由刘兆铭饰演，后因合约问题而辞演。此劇甘草演員鮑方因在廣西拍攝外景時突然中風入院，此劇成為其在TVB服務17年以及退休之前的最後一部作品。 (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
