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

This is a black and white experimental film that breaks time into small independent stories. The film has no beginning or end and treats every second as its own universe.

What happens

No time er en eksperimentalfilm fra 1984 instrueret af Karin Westerlund efter eget manuskript. En film om tid. Förstora nutiden, vidga nuet. Splittra filmens egen tid. Små, oberoende av varandra, historier. Avbrutna. En svartvit, dansande, dokumentär rörelse. Ingen filmhistoria, ingen början, inget slut. Ingen förtrollning. Varja sekund sitt eget universum.
