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.

What happens

Guld i gröna skogar är en svensk kortfilm från 1951 i regi av Hampe Faustman. Det är bränslebrist och veden som finns att köpa är dyr, men det finns skog som behöver gallras. Man visar i filmen att en överenskommelse mellan kommuner och skogsägare medför att folk kan få hugga sin egen ved. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
