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 Danish-Ghanaian filmmaker returns to Ghana for the first time since childhood. He blends new footage with home movies his late father shot and interviews his mother. The film is about feeling caught between two different cultures.

What happens
På gensyn med Tafo er en dokumentarfilm instrueret af Erik Knudsen efter eget manuskript. Instruktøren, der har en dansk far og en sort ghanesisk mor, fortæller om sit gensyn med Ghana, hvor han ikke har været siden sin tidlige barndom. Nyoplevede dokumentariske indtryk veksler med erindringsbilleder fra Tafo, hvor faren var læge, og familien levede et overklasseliv. Den voksne, sorte mands tanker om at have rod i to meget forskellige kulturer er filmens hovedtema. Filmen indeholder optagelser, som faren (nu død) har foretaget i Ghana – og interviews af i dag med moren. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
