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.

What happens

Gæstearbejdere er en dansk spillefilm fra 1974. Filmen er instrueret af Voja Miladinovic og musikken er skrevet af Povl Dissing. Jugoslaven Voja Miladinovic brugte filmens fiktive historie til at skildre det voldsomme kultursammenstød, han selv kendte så godt. Det var den første danske film om landets gæstearbejdere, men biografpublikummet blev væk og flere anmeldere fandt filmen naiv og firkantet. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
