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

Teknik for dig og mig er en dokumentarfilm fra 1983 instrueret af Katia Forbert Petersen. Piger har svært ved at identificere sig med de tekniske fag. Myten om "kvinder og teknik" lever i bedste traditions- og kønsrollebestemte velgående. Filmen tager fat på denne problematik ved at sætte fokus på erhvervsvalget hos to piger, der har valgt anderledes. En 19-årig pige går på teknisk skole og uddanner sig til et job i elektronikbranchen. En 30-årig elektroingeniør har et job i branchen. De to fortæller om valget og om at skulle accepteres i uddannelsen og på arbejdet. Filmen henvender sig først og fremmest til elever i folkeskolens afgangsklasser og i gymnasiet/HF.
