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 Danish documentary from 1943 about the Polar Eskimos in Thule. It shows their daily activities like building tents, processing seal skins, making harpoon points from walrus tusks, hunting sea birds and walrus, building snow houses, and dog sledding.
