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

Åndssvage Sara er en film instrueret af Jon Bang Carlsen efter manuskript af Jon Bang Carlsen. En film om Sara, 4 år og dybt åndssvag, som bor sammen med sine forældre og en lillesøster. Sara kom ikke på institution, fordi forældrene besluttede, at det måtte være muligt at leve sammen med barnet i hverdagen, på trods af at lægerne advarede dem om, at det ville ødelægge deres liv, hvis ikke de anbragte barnet på institution.
