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

The film presents efforts to ease suffering and stresses the need for funding research so one day the city can be empty.

What happens
Eventyret om en by er en dansk dokumentarfilm fra 1949 med instruktion og manuskript af Ove Sevel. Hvis man samlede alle gigtpatienter i Danmark, ville de kunne fylde en hel by - over dette motiv er filmen bygget. De forskellige gader i byen bærer de forskellige latinske navne på de rheumatiske sygdomme. Man ser i filmen enkelte borgere i gigtens by og får i glimt et indtryk af deres tragedie. Filmen viser, hvad der gøres for at lindre patienternes lidelser og bekæmpe sygdommen, og det slås fast, at der må skaffes penge til fortsat forskningsarbejde, så gigtens by en dag kan stå tom.
