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
A lonely boy named Peter is not doing well at home. His mother asks a committee to let him stay at one of Denmark's Christmas Seal homes. The film explains how these homes started in 1903 and how the sale of Christmas seals supports them. It shows what daily life is like for the children who live there.
