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 group of professional actors bring a theater performance to a small village in northeastern Hungary. The film shows their effort to share live theater with people who rarely get to see it.

What happens

Forestillingen er en dansk eksperimentalfilm fra 1981, der er instrueret af Jenö Farkas, Agi Dudas og Henning Schwarz. Det er uretfærdigt, at folk udenfor storbyerne ikke har lejlighed til at se levende teater, siger en af skuespillerne i filmen. Med udgangspunkt i denne holdning har otte professionelle skuespillere sat sig for at bringe teatret tilbage til folket - i dette tilfælde indbyggerene i en lille landsby i det nordøstlige Ungarn.
