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

What happens
Livet vil leves er en film instrueret af Jon Bang Carlsen efter manuskript af Jon Bang Carlsen. Det føles forkert, at mødre kan dø. Men det gør de - reflekterer filminstruktøren Jon Bang Carlsen i slutningen af sit filmdigt til sin mor. Moderen var altid i bevægelse, var bange for stilstand, for døden, men forblev hele livet i den lille landsby ved Vesterhavet, mens Jon Bang Carlsen flygtede fra landsbyen og rejste ud på en Amerikarejse. Mod erkendelse og modning. Men hele tiden var de i kontakt, og trods afstandene fandtes hele tiden en nærhed og samhørighed. Moderen er nu død. Men hendes breve og tanker er tilbage. Og Jon Bang Carlsens minder om hende. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
