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

Københavnsturen er en dansk virksomhedsfilm fra 1939 med instruktion og manuskript af Svend Holbæk og Kaj Wedell Pape. Filmen er produceret af Hapa-Film for de danske sparekasser. Filmen er lavet i to versioner: 1939: 41 min, stum, og 1953: 36 min., stum - begge med danske mellemtekster. Mellemteksterne er ændret i den seneste version, da det for eksempel kostede 500 kr. at tage en tur til København mod 250 kr. i 1939. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
