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 documentary examines the Black German and African extras who appeared in roughly 100 German propaganda films set in Africa before 1942. It asks who these people were, how they came to Germany, and why they worked in film. It also explores their everyday lives during the Weimar Republic and Nazi era.
