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
Midt i en overgang er en dansk dokumentarfilm fra 1980 instrueret af Bent Barfod efter eget manuskript. I en blanding af real-, tegne- og special-effekt-film er der lagt op til en uhøjtidelig debat om fordele og ulemper ved vor tids anvendelse af edb, som både rummer udfordringer og risikoer. Filmen indledes med en tour de force gennem vores kulturhistorie og billeder af, hvordan verden har hængt sammen i vores fælles forståelse af den - indtil nu. Hvad er det for et samfund, vi vil have? Kan vi bevare romantikken? Og kan vi undgå misbrug? (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
