The 3D catalogue: film cases on wooden shelves, with the cat sitting at the counter next to its greeting.

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

En mærkelig kærlighed er en dansk spillefilm fra 1968 med instruktion og manuskript af Nils Malmros. Han optog den som en amatørfilm for egne penge med hans venner og bekendte som medvirkende. Filmen er især inspireret af François Truffauts film. Filmen opnåede at få ordinær premiere i en københavnsk omegnsbiograf, uden at den dog imponerede nogen anmelder. Da den siden vistes i Århus, vurderede lokalpressen den på en amatørfilms betingelser og gav den ret pæn omtale. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
