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

Late For School is an Australian television comedy series which screened for a single season on Network Ten in 1992. The series is centred around Kathy Price, who returns to study at the school where she was educated sixteen years previously. This provides much embarrassment to her two teenage children who attend the school. The series is notable for introducing a number of young actors who went on to have success in other Australian television series such as Melissa Thomas, Matthew Newton, Stephen Curry, Anthony Engelman and Scott Major. The series was produced by John Holmes, directed by Tina Butler and Riccardo Pellizzeri and written by Rob Menzies and Rob Caldwell. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
