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

Nej til folkeskolen? Ja til demokrati er en dansk dokumentarfilm fra 1972 instrueret af Åge Rokkjær. En elevfilm af 11. forsøgsklasse på Brøndbyvester Skole. Den fortæller om en gruppe unge, der ønskede at gå et år mere i skole på de betingelser, at de fik lov til at udvikle sig gennem frihed og ansvar. De ønskede således højeste myndighed omkring undervisningen, ansvaret for at undervisningen var meningsfyldt for dem, retten til at kunne tilrettelægge deres skema frit i løbet af hele skoleåret. Forløbet kom efter deres opfattelse til at stå som et muligt alternativ til folkeskolens nuværende praksis. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
