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

The Killing Season is a 2015 Australian three-part documentary television series which analyses the events of the Rudd–Gillard government which lasted from 2007 until 2013; it was a turbulent period in Australia’s modern political history. Journalist Sarah Ferguson interviewed the Australian Labor Party decision-makers and strategists who engaged in internal conflict that brought down a government that performed well during the 2008 financial crisis. The program followed the ABC's contemporary tradition of producing similar long-form retrospective documentary series of Australian governments, such as Labor in Power and The Howard Years.
