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

Fiesta is an Australian television series which aired in 1958 on ABC Television. Described as a "Latin-American dance and song programme", it was produced in Sydney, and kinescoped ("telerecorded") for broadcast in Melbourne. The series featured the Gino Hernandez Sextet, as well as singer Ron Fabri. Episodes were 30-minutes in duration, in black-and-white. It is not known if any of the episodes still exist, given the varied survival rates of early ABC programming. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
