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 film is already out on the counter, with more like it waiting on the shelf next to it.

How it feels

This is a silent documentary from 1936 showing the disassembly of a railway bridge over Roskilde Fjord and its transport to Aalborg. The final minute shows construction work on the new Knippelsbro in Copenhagen while traffic still uses the old bridge.

What happens

DSB Brobygning er en dansk stumfilm og dokumentarisk optagelse fra 1936. Fra 1928 til 1936 havde Midtsjællandske Jernbane en 300 meter lang bro over Roskilde Fjord, lidt syd for for Kronprins Frederiks Bro, som forbinder Frederikssund og Hornsherred. Jernbanebroen demonteres og transporteres til Aalborg. Det sidste minut er optagelser af det igangværende anlægsarbejde på den nye Knippelsbro, mens trafikken stadig strømmer over den gamle. Den nye Knippelsbro åbnede 17. december 1937. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
