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
Filmed in a new Danish shopping center in 1969, this experimental movie shows people walking and moving in patterns. The camera follows formal rules for how the crowds march and gather, with a jazz soundtrack by Django Reinhardt.

What happens
Rødovrefilmen er en film instrueret af Jørgen Leth og Ole John. Rødovrecentret var det første store indkøbscenter i Danmark. Filmens bevægelser gennem centret er til en vis grad styret af formelle principper, f.eks. marcherer alle i begyndelsen af filmen på række ind i centret med kameraet på den forangåendes skulder. Den ledsagende musik var Django Reinhards Django Realm. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
