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

Tornerose var et vakkert barn er en film instrueret af Jytte Rex efter manuskript af Kirsten Justesen. En kvindefilm lavet i nært samarbejde mellem kvinder, som - gennem situationer, de selv har valgt at beskrive i filmen - dels træder ud af det anonyme rollemønster og dels røber en identitet, der har overlevet alle samfunds-normernes undertrykkelsesforsøg. En film, der handler om længsel. Kvinder lever uafbrudt og vil overleve alle blodbade, og de ved, at med sikkerheden forsvinder højdepunkterne. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
