How to query Netflix using YQL?

What is a query to select data from NetFlix API using YQL?

I tried to run select* from netflix.catalog where key = "xxxxx";

but got an error Cannot find required keys in where clause; got 'key', expecting required keys: (cks, term, ck)

update: I checked it asks for SELECT * FROM netflix.catalog WHERE term="" and ck="" and cks=""

What are these parameters and how to query a movie from that table?

There is a very detailed example of an netflix app using YQL here. The netflix specific stuff begins under the header Setting Up This Example

Here's their first query that clearly shows the values of cks,term, and ck.

USE "http://your_domain/netflix.xml" AS netflix_table; SELECT * FROM netflix_table WHERE term="rocky" AND ck="your_consumer_key" AND cks="your_consumer_secret__key"

ck: consumer_key
cks: consumer_secret
term: search term
