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 film from 1945 showing the writer Johannes V. Jensen at home with his wife and in his study. It also shows him at a prehistoric grave site with his grandchildren and by his summer house. Jensen then reads a text to the camera explaining why he became a writer and his view on writing.

What happens
Forfatteren Johannes V. Jensen er en dansk dokumentarisk optagelse fra 1945. Optagelser fra august 1945 af Johannes V. Jensen i sit hjem på Kastelsvej i København; i dagligstuen sammen med sin hustru og i arbejdsværelset. Derefter ved stendyssen Mor Gribs Hule i Gribskov sammen med børnebørnene og ved sommerhuset i Tibirke Bakker (disse tre klip er uden lyd). Herefter læser forfatteren en tekst op til kameraet, hvor han besvarer spørgsmålet "Hvorfor blev jeg skribent?" og redegør for sin forfattervirksomhed og sin poetik. Sidstnævnte klip stammer fra en anden film optaget i 1947. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
