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

Cuarteto para instrumentos de muerte es una serie de televisión de Televisión Nacional de Chile, emitida entre el 21 de julio y el 20 de agosto de 1970. Consta de 22 capítulos de 23 minutos cada uno (aprox.) y es considerada la primera serie policial de Chile. Tras su emisión, que ocurría de lunes a viernes a las 15:00, el espacio fue ocupado por la teleserie El padre Gallo. Las grabaciones de los últimos capítulos en los estudios de Protab generaron una pelea verbal entre Silvia Santelices y Agustín Vargas, luego que este calificara de «bodrio» el episodio final.
