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

Vändkorset är en svensk dramafilm från 1944 i regi av Rune Carlsten och Lauritz Falk. Den lilla orten Gåtatorp i Småland är helt beroende av sin framstående möbelfabrik. Men fabriken är i fara eftersom den svaga ekonomin innebär att banken vill lägga ned fabriken. En av de anställda, Albert Fristedt, lyckas få bankdirektörens löfte att de anställda ska få ta över fabriken på villkor att fabrikens framgångsrike formgivare Jean Le Fort, stannar kvar.
