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

A short film shows a small village in the marsh south of Ribe, Denmark. It is not a tourist attraction or a noted landmark. The film tries to respect the village's unique character.

What happens

En by ved navn Hviding er en dansk kortfilm fra 1985 instrueret af Hans Christian Høier. En kort billedantydning af en landsby i marsken syd for Ribe. Den plejer ikke at være med i sightseeing-programmerne og er ikke noteret med stjerner blandt seværdigheder. Men den har sit særpræg, som filmen forsøger at respektere. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
