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.

Filmen berättar om svensk militär vardag, som möter en pluton värnpliktiga och deras kompanibefäl på ett infanteriregemente, och skildrar den anda som råder i det slutna kasernsystemet och i fält, mellan befäl och värnpliktiga och man och man emellan.
