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

Som fugle i bur er en film instrueret af Lizzi Weischenfeldt efter eget manuskript. Ivana og Dalibor er to små skæbner blandt mange i det tidligere Jugoslavien. De bor midlertidigt i en flygtningelejr og har oplevet tre år med krig og rædsler. De har mistet forældre, familie og søskende. De venter hele tiden, og de er vant til at vente og vente, og de drømmer om uddannelse, familie og en fremtid, men er der nogen? Børnene fortæller om stort og småt, om børnehjem, en anderledes barndom og manglende evne til at koncentrere sig i skolen, om krigsoplevelser og smertelig erindring. Filmen er 1. del af trilogien om krigens børn. Se også Krig er ikke for børn og En fremmed fugl. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
