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

What happens

Kampsax er en dansk dokumentarfilm fra 1938. Filmen viser det dansk-svenske konsortium Kampsax' arbejde med bygningen af det store jernbane-projekt i Iran. Der er både optagelser fra Iran og møder i Ingeniørforeningens bygning, hvor planlægningsarbejdet diskuteres. Anlæggelsen af Den Transiranske Jernbane skildres også i Theodor Christensens film Iran - det nye Persien. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
