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

Fra Brandes til Rifbjerg er en film instrueret af Ole Henning Hansen efter eget manuskript. De folk her gav os deres drømme, de gav vore drømme ord, de viste os verden, de fortolkede verden for os. De pustede nyt liv i sproget, og de støvede det af. De forærede os historier, historier om os selv, om vore naboer, om dem i de andre byer, i andre lande. De gav os sange, drama, drivende skyer, pegede på vores længselspunkter og satte fingeren på vores sorg. De gav os til os selv, de betød og betyder noget... Ja, det gjorde de, det gør de - de store danske forfattere som lever på film. Denne sjældne samling af levende billeder hvor dette århundredes afdøde og nulevende forfattere og digtere optræder, viser os Georg Brandes, Henrik Pontoppidan, Martin Andersen Nexø, Johannes V. Jensen, Thit Jensen, Karen Blixen, Otto Gelsted, Tom Kristensen, Jacob Paludan, Soya, Aksel Sandemose, H.C. Branner, Hans Scherfig, Halfdan Rasmussen, Tove Ditlevsen, Thorkild Bjørnvig, Poul Ørum, Ole Sarvig, Peter Seeberg, Frank Jæger, Benny Andersen, Jess Ørnsbo og Klaus Rifbjerg.
