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

This 1972 documentary captures Easter in Jerusalem with no narration, just images. It shows religious processions inside and outside the city walls along with prayers at the Wailing Wall. People from many faiths appear, and the camera records their slow movement through narrow streets, including the area near the Arab mosque.

What happens

Påske i Jerusalem er en dansk dokumentarfilm fra 1972 instrueret af Tue Ritzau efter eget manuskript. En observerende, ukommenteret film fra den gyldne by, som den kan tage sig ud under påskehøjtiderne. Filmen viser de religiøse processioner inden- og udenfor murene og bønnerne ved Grædemuren. Alle trosretninger er der, og processionerne bevæger sig langsomt igennem de små gader. Også området i nærheden af den arabiske moské er filmet. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
