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 film is built as a simple montage using only three camera angles of K. answering.

What happens
Hvorfor blev du kriminel? er en dansk dokumentarfilm fra 1971 med instruktion og manuskript af Hans-Henrik Jørgensen. Povl Bjarne Knudsen, der har været under forsorg siden sit sjette år, besvarer spørgsmålene: Hvorfor blev han kriminel? Hvordan oplevede han frihedsberøvelsen første gang? Hvorfor tror han så mange vender tilbage til ny kriminalitet? Filmen er bygget op som en enkel montage, hvor en båndoptagelse af en samtale illustreres af kun tre kameraindstillinger. Povl Bjarne Knudsen ses forfra, fra højre og fra venstre side. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
