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

Noget om Norden er en turistfilm fra 1956 instrueret af Bent Barfod efter manuskript af samme. Filmen fortæller i en uhøjtidelig form noget om de nordiske lande, deres fællesskab og de muligheder, de har for et samarbejde. Gennem et barns enkle vejledning i det nordiske fællesskabs problemer føres man på en hurtig rundtur gennem Nordens lande, hvor vi er gode venner, når vi skændes, men hvor vi klarer os bedst, når vi samarbejder.
