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

Long Lost Family Australia is an Australian television series on Network Ten which premiered on 16 March 2016 and featured eight episodes. It is based on Dutch format Spoorloos developed by broadcaster KRO, who sold it to the UK, where it was called Long Lost Family, a BAFTA award-winning British television series that has aired on ITV since 2011. Presented by Chrissie Swan and Anh Do and featuring private investigator Julia Robson, it aimed to reunite close relatives after years of separation. It was made by the production company WTFN. In a February 2017 interview, Ten's Chief Content Officer Beverley McGarvey confirmed there were no plans to air further seasons of the program. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
