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.

How it feels

This 1945 Danish newsreel shows a large memorial ceremony for those who died fighting for Denmark's freedom. Coffins are driven through flower-strewn streets in Copenhagen and 106 victims are laid to rest in the memorial park at Ryvangen. King Christian X, Crown Prince Frederik, and Crown Princess Ingrid attend the service.
