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 dancer moves through strange spaces. The camera watches and follows, creating a triangular tension between dancer, viewer, and film itself. The film questions who is chasing whom and what the body is doing.

What happens

You make me do it in strange places er en film instrueret af Prami Larsen og Jørgen Teller. Hvem danser med hvem? Hvad er op og ned? Stedet. Kroppen. Noget er på færde. Et trekantsdrama mellem danseren, kameraet og dig. Danseren har sin historie. Du har din. Er han forelsket? På flugt? På jagt? En dansevideo. Eller videotrashtraces af en dansers bevægelser gennem underlige rum. Han skiftevis forfører og aflures. Og man ved aldrig, hvor næste spring bringer videoen hen. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
