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 experimental film uses abstract patterns and figures to communicate purely through visual means. It takes real-world objects and places them in non-representational settings to affect the viewer on a subconscious level rather than through a conscious story.

What happens

Flat against the wall er en dansk eksperimentalfilm fra 1993, der er instrueret af Knud Vesterskov og Ulrik Al Brask. Filmen fortæller alene gennem visuelle udtryk ved brug af ikke-repræsentative mønstre og figurer for derved at give en underbevidst mere end en bevidst indvirkning på tilskueren. Filmen har en meget lille eller ingen reference til virkeligheden, men bruger objekter og billeder fra virkeligheden indenfor en abstrakt ramme. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
