The fragments are linked to each other by keywords. While watching a sequence new options to continue pop up in the menu. The offered films are represented by an icon (a portrait of the 4 different dwellings), the name of the inhabitants and a keyword of the content.

Views uses the korsaskow system. developed by Florian Thalhofer.
