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

Fårödokument 1979 är en svensk dokumentärfilm från 1979 i regi av Ingmar Bergman. Filmen är en fristående uppföljning av Bergmans tio år tidigare dokumentärfilm Fårödokument 1969 och skildrar regissörens nya hemmiljö Fårö och glesbygdens människor och livsvillkor under ett års tid. Filmens fotograf var Bergmans granne och återkommande medarbetare Arne Carlsson. Den belönades med ett festivalpris för bästa dokumentär vid en filmfestival i Barcelona 1980.
