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

This Danish experimental film presents a philosophical meditation on perspective and truth. It suggests that seeing only one side of any matter gives an incomplete understanding, and only a divine or all-seeing observer can hold both sides fully.

What happens

Når din mand er en dreng er en film instrueret af Carsten 1/2, Mette Mädchen. At se en sag fra den ene side er kun den halve sandhed. At se en sag fra den anden side er kun den halve sandhed... thi kun Han, hvis øjne er tvunget åbne, kan rumme begge sider af en sag. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
