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
Sydvestgrønland er en dansk dokumentarfilm fra 1950 instrueret af Paul Hansen efter eget manuskript. En film om Grønlands udvikling fra fangersamfund til byer i vækst. I afsides egne bor grønlænderne primitivt. I kolonistederne er der træhuse og gader. Klimaet tillader et primitivt landbrug. Moderne transportmidler. Kolonistederne vokser hurtigt. Kul kommer fra kulbruddet på Disko. Kryolitbruddet ved Ivigtut bruger moderne maskiner. Den mest udbredte sygdom, tuberkulose, bekæmpes med nye metoder. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
