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.

What happens

Statens død er en film instrueret af Per Ingolf Mannstaedt efter manuskript af Per Ingolf Mannstaedt. Dokumentarfilm om Danmarks fremtid. Danmark har valgt internationaliseringens vej og ledelsesrådgivere og politikere kommenterer den udvikling som filmen provokerende stiller op således: "... tidligere tiders undertrykkelse og slaveri har vist sig unødvendig og uøkonomisk. I det moderne demokrati er de globale markedskræfter tilstrækkelige til at få folk til at gøre, som de skal" (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
