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.

How it feels

Turkish and Pakistani women speak to a female film crew about the difficulties they faced after coming to Denmark. They talk about their origins, culture, and the gender roles they grew up with in a society where everything seems permitted.

What happens

Mødre i fremmed fædreland er en film instrueret af Ingrid Oustrup Jensen. Tyrkiske og pakistanske kvinder fortæller til et kvindeligt filmhold om de vanskeligheder, de har mødt efter at være kommet til Danmark. De fortæller om, hvor de kommer fra, om deres kultur og religion og det kønsrolle- og familiemønster, de er vokset op med - og som de pludselig skal videreføre i et helt andet samfund, hvor alt i deres øjne er tilladt.
