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 man confronts the element of water in a reflective and minimal drama. The film is based on texts by Friedrich Hölderlin and was one of four works commissioned for a project on the classical elements.

What happens
Das Wasser – der letzte Kopfsprung (portugiesischer Originaltitel: O Último Mergulho) ist ein Filmdrama des portugiesischen Regisseurs João César Monteiro aus dem Jahr 1992. Das Drehbuch schrieb der Regisseur selbst, auf Basis von Texten von Friedrich Hölderlin. Der Film entstand eigentlich als Fernsehauftragsarbeit, als einer von vier Teilen zu den vier Elementen (Erde, Wasser, Luft und Feuer). Im Vorspann nennt der Regisseur den Film nur einen Versuch.
