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

Happy birthday er en dansk dokumentarfilm fra 1985 med instruktion og manuskript af Jenö Farkas. Historien om en familie med fem børn, som samles for at fejre et af børnenes fødselsdag. Det er en historie om en ganske almindelig festdag i en ganske almindelig dansk familie - set og oplevet af børnene, fra barnet i kravlegården til den store knægt, der karakteriserer det som "en gang dansk familieflip".
