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

Anna Comes Home (French: Le retour d'Anna Brodeur) is a Canadian television sitcom, which premiered in October 2024 on Crave. Created by Richard Blaimert, the series stars Julie Le Breton as Anna Brodeur, a professional screenwriter experiencing culture shock as she returns to Quebec after 10 years living as an expatriate in Paris. The cast also includes Élise Guilbault as Anna's mother Monique, Patrick Hivon as her egotistical ex-boyfriend Antoine, Benoît McGinnis as her talent agent friend Patrick, and Karelle Tremblay as Romane, an actress client of Patrick's who goes through a public relations crisis after her comments about Quebec's lack of action on climate change in a radio interview cause controversy. The series premiered on October 30, 2024, in both the original French and a subtitled English version. J. Kelly Nestruck described the series as a story about the aftermath of a failed Emily in Paris fantasy. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
