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 shows how the Danish navy and the hydrographic office work together to measure Danish and Greenlandic waters. It also covers how nautical charts are made from that data.

What happens

Søkort er en film instrueret af Ib Dam efter eget manuskript. Effektiv og nøjagtig søopmåling er afgørende for skibsfartens trygge sejlads. Denne vigtige opgave varetages af søværnet i samarbejde med søkortarkivet. Opmålingsarbejdet såvel i danske som grønlandske farvande vises, foruden fremstillingen af søkort.
