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

The film explains how keeping production up can also avoid unemployment.

What happens

Det gaar fremad igen er en dansk dokumentarfilm fra 1949 instrueret af Ove Sevel. Filmen giver i en journalistisk form en skildring af Danmarks forsyningssituation. Den viser, hvordan produktionen er ved at arbejde sig op på førkrigstidens niveau. En købmand og et par af hans kunder beklager sig over, at pengene ikke synes at slå til, og handelsminister Jens Otto Krag svarer, at det er fordi, de er ved at være noget værd igen. Ved at holde produktionen oppe, har man chancen for også at undgå arbejdsløshed. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
