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 follows a road construction project in the Luristan province of Iran. It shows workers discovering ancient bronze artifacts and an archaeological expedition from the Danish National Museum negotiating to bring half of the items back to Denmark.

What happens
Luristan er en film instrueret af Svend Aage Lorentz efter manuskript af Svend Aage Lorentz. Luristan er en provins i det sydvestlige Iran, Persien, hvor Kampsax i disse år trækker en vej gennem vildsomme egne over en strækning af 300 km. Under arbejdet stødte man to-tre meter ned på betydelige ophobninger af Luristan-bronzer - pragtfulde kunstgenstande, der har tilhørt svundne tiders persiske stormænd. Civilingeniør Jørgen Saxild foranledigede, at Nationalmuseet rejste ned med en arkæologisk ekspedition. Aftalen med den persiske stat blev, at Nationalmuseet kunne hjemføre halvdelen af de opgravede genstande, og den anden halvdel går til samlingerne i Teheran. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
