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.

How it feels

The documentary shows a day in Jerusalem from the perspective of different religious groups. It follows Muslims on Friday, Christians on a procession, and Jews on the Sabbath as they go about their rituals and daily lives.

What happens

Sabbat i Jerusalem er en dansk dokumentarfilm fra 1969 instrueret af Ole Schelde efter eget manuskript. Arabere, jøder og kristne lever side om side i Jerusalem. Fredag er muhammedanernes hviledag. Den katolske menighed mindes Kristi lidelser med en procession ad Via Dolorosa. Lørdag er arabernes torvedag. For de ortodokse jøder er lørdag helligdag - sabbat. Nogle går til Kong Davids grav - alle rører ved det sted i muren, hvor et lille stykke torarulle er indmuret. Andre går til grædemuren for at bede. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
