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

Brev til Indien er en dokumentarfilm fra 1991 instrueret af Maria Rytter efter eget manuskript. En ny Danmarksfilm bygget over den indiske antropolog professor Prakash Reddys studier af danskerne. Den skildrer et kulturmøde set fra en ny synsvinkel, og er samtidig et portræt af et folk, som aldrig før er blevet studeret af en forsker fra den såkaldte Tredje verden. I filmen er det vores tur til at være fremmedartede og kuriøse. Filmen er optaget i Danmark og Indien. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
