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 bourgeois daughter's observations and dreams show her upbringing, conflicts with her mother and husband, and her failed attempts to join society. The film presents the jump between old conventions and spontaneous feelings from a nervous point of view.

What happens

Ægteskabsprøven er en kortfilm fra 1979 instrueret af Laurie Grundt, Annelise Bock og Per Assentoft. Morsomt eksperiment. En bourgeois-datters iagttagelser, drømme, hendes opdragelse, konflikter med moderen, ægtemand, og sig selv. Hun forsøger forgæves at deltage i samfundet. Synsvinklen er nervernes, og filmen viser det dialektiske spring mellem gamle konventioner og spontane følelser. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
