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

For Folkets Fremtid er en dansk film fra 1943 instrueret af Søren Melson efter manuskript af Henning Friis. Filmen giver et indblik i det offentliges indsats for borgere i alle alders- og samfundsklasser. Det danske samfunds socialforsorg skildres for det enkelte individ - fra fødsel til grav: Hjælp til mødre, til spædbørn, til de større børn, forsorgen for ungdommen, for syge og vanføre og for åndssvage og sindssyge. Men filmen peger også på, hvor der skal sættes ind for yderligere at udbygge den sociale forsorg. Den understreger, at meget er nået, men at der stadig er langt til målet. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
