Hotel
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
Hotel is 'n Afrikaanse mokumentêre reeks wat op KykNET, DStv kanaal 144 uitgesaai word. Fiktief in die hartjie van Mpumalanga, in die klein dorpie van Fransenburg, staan die Fransen Hotel. Eens die dorp se trots. Eens 'n baken. Eens. Nou skaars 'n een uit vyf op Trip Advisor. Ferdie Kruger, die middeljarige hotelbestuurder en sy kleindorpie personeel, spartel om die substandaardhotel se deure oop te hou. Hotel word maandae om 19:30 uitgesaai. In Augustus 2021 kondig KykNET aan dat Hotel vir 'n 5de en laaste seisoen gehernu is. Die reeks is ook beskikbaar op DStv Now en Showmax. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
