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

A documentary from 1973 shows life in the Faroe Islands through the eyes of several workers: a trawler fisherman, a factory worker, a fisherman's wife, a coastal fisherman, and a farmer. Most of them express fear and opposition about joining the European Economic Community, fearing their small nation would be lost.

What happens

So er Manna Hugsan er en film instrueret af Rolf Guttesen. I filmen ser man en række billeder fra Færøerne. Vi møder en trawlerfisker, en mand på en fiskefiletfabrik, en kvinde, hvis mand fisker på langfart, en hjemmefisker og en bonde. De føler sig meget utrygge over EF – størsteparten af dem er modstandere. En tidligere fisker slutter med at sige 'I EF ville vi bare være en lille gade i en storby - vi ville forsvinde'.
