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

Tæt på livet er en film instrueret af Anja Dalhoff efter manuskript af Anja Dalhoff. Camilla, Emma og Nikolaj er tre små menneskebørn. Tre vidt forskellige børn i deres tidlige leveår, men med en fælles skæbne. De er alle tre født med HIV-smitte og er dømt til en kort og anderledes livsbane. De er syge, og deres mødre er syge. Men også syge børn har ret til et godt liv. Så godt et liv som overhovedet muligt. Dokumentaristen Anja Dalhoff har fulgt de tre børn gennem et år og smukt indfanget deres hverdag, deres raske og syge perioder, deres familie- og vennerelationer, deres håb, glæde og sorg.
