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
This documentary shows how haymaking was done in the 1890s in the Danish marshlands. It follows the workers as they prepare tools, travel to the meadows, and perform tasks like sharpening scythes and gathering hay.

What happens
Høbjergning i Marsken er en dansk dokumentarfilm fra 1952, der er instrueret af Erik R. Knudsen. En beskrivelse af gammeldags høslet. Optagelserne, som har fundet sted i Vilslev enge i marskegnene, rekonstruerer høbjergningen, som den foregik omkring 1890. Slætkarlene samles på en gård i Kragelund by, hvor redskaberne gøres klar; de kører om eftermiddagen samlet i hestevogn ud til engene, hvor slætten påbegyndes. Folkene overnatter på engen i vognen og gør slætten færdig følgende formiddag. Filmen viser de gamle metoder for skærpning af leen, tilretning af strygen, vejring af græsset samt sammenrivning og læsning af høet. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
