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
The seventh age er en film instrueret af Torben Anton Svendsen efter manuskript af Carl Th. Dreyer. Aldersrente er en rettighed, som tilkommer enhver dansker med en mindre indkomst. Vi besøger ældre mennesker i boliger, der er bygget til dem, på alderdomshjem og i 'De gamles By', og får indtryk af, hvordan livet leves til hverdag og fest. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
