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

Den industrialiserede gris er en film instrueret af Ebbe Nyvold efter manuskript af Ebbe Nyvold. Filmen er et indlæg i debatten om den moderne danske svineproduktion, og giver baggrunden for mange af de kritiske spørgsmål, der i dag rejses med hensyn til svinekødets kvalitet. Den spørger også om, hvor grænsen bør gå for en etisk og moralsk holdning til husdyr. Kan Danmark tillade sig at have en svineproduktion, der er baseret på korn som foder, når der er fødevarekrise i verden. Nøgternt viser filmen den udvikling, der hos mange landmænd er sket fra den gammeldags manuelt betonede til moderne automatiserede og funktionsopdelte staldtype. Den viser samtidig karakteristiske faser i en gris' liv fra den fødes til den er slagteklar. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
