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.

How it feels

This experimental Danish film uses poetic imagery to explore feelings of being lost and without direction. It shows situations that cause this lack of direction, painting a bleak and realistic view of the world.

What happens

Roadless er en film instrueret af Mark Andersen. En lyrisk billed illustrerende poesivideo med udgangspunkt i vejløsheden alle konfronteres med i livet. Der tegnes/vises også situationer om, hvorfor denne vejløshed opstår. Et dystert deprimerende billede af vores verden, men samtidig også realistisk. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
