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

『ガラスの家』（ガラスのいえ）は、2013年9月3日から10月29日までNHKの「ドラマ10」で放送された日本のテレビドラマ。主演は本作が連続ドラマ初主演となる井川遥、脚本は大石静。 22年前、フランスでの航空機事故で両親を失った玉木黎は、花を供えに訪れたブルターニュ地方のペニール岬で、同じ事故で妻を失い、男手一つで2人の息子を育て上げた澁澤一成と偶然出会う。事故以来、人生のどん底で笑うことも泣くことも抑え込み、寂しく生きてきた黎は、優しい言葉をかけてくれた一成に恋に落ち、やがて2人は結婚する。澁澤家の長男・仁志は、黎が家族の一員となってから、尊敬する父が嫉妬に駆られ独占欲を露わにする姿を目の当たりにし、また仕事に邁進してきた自分もまた生身の男であることを思い出し、それまで保たれてきた均衡が崩れ、まるでガラスのように脆くなったことを実感する。 (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
