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
This Taiwanese drama series is very loosely based on a 19th-century novel. It follows characters like Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang, with a large cast of Hong Kong actors. The show aired in 1994 and competed with a similar series on a different channel.

What happens
The Chevaliers (Chinese: 俠義見青天) is a 1994 Taiwanese television drama series produced by Young Pei‑pei, first aired on Taiwan Television (TTV). It was produced in conjunction with Hong Kong’s TVB and is known for featuring a large ensemble of Hong Kong actors, including Damian Lau, Alex Man, Cecilia Yip, Maggie Shiu, Margie Tseng, Lau Dan, Eddie Kwan, and Lawrence Ng. Like its main rival, The Seven Heroes and Five Gallants (1994) produced by Chinese Television System (CTS), The Chevaliers was also very loosely based on the 19th‑century novel The Seven Heroes and Five Gallants. As a result, in June and July 1994, Taiwanese prime‑time audiences could switch TV channels and still watch the same characters such as Zhan Zhao, Bai Yutang and Prince of Xiangyang portrayed by different actors.
