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

Havnen er en dansk dokumentarfilm fra 1967 med instruktion og manuskript af Jørgen Vestergaard. Et dokumentarisk øjebliksbillede af byen Hanstholm i 1967, hvor det besværlige havnebyggeri har været mere eller mindre i gang i 50 år og nu omsider er på vej til sin delvise afslutning. Billedet af Hanstholm i dag er billedet af et gammelt lukket samfund i opbrud og et nyt ufærdigt på vej. Det sættes i relief af tilbageblik på havnebyggeriet historie og på Hansholms rolle under besættelsen som et stærkt led i tyskernes vestvold. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
