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 Danish documentary from 1959 that shows a realistic exercise of a small atomic bomb hitting a large provincial town. It demonstrates how civilians use self-protection methods to handle damage in the outer zone, then shows the response of local emergency forces and outside assistance.

What happens

Civilforsvar er en dansk dokumentarfilm fra 1959 instrueret af Carl Otto Petersen efter eget manuskript. Filmen skildrer en realistisk øvelse, der forudsætter, at en mindre a-bombe er faldet over en større provinsby. Det vises, hvordan befolkningen selv gennem egenbeskyttelsen går i gang med at bekæmpe skaderne i yderzonen. Derefter vises indsatsen af byens egne styrker og fjernhjælpen.
