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

Lady in Red er en dansk dokumentarfilm fra 1996, der er instrueret af Lisa Strömbeck. Lisa Strömbeck har i sine performancearbejder udforsket forholdet mellem kunstner, værk og beskuer i en grad, så det egentlige værk netop opstår i en direkte udveksling. I sine videoarbejder inddrager hun ofte selvbiografiske elementer, der i en tilsyneladende dokumentarisk form udtrykkes som kommentarer til individets handlemuligheder i verden af i dag. Filmen er en subtil parodi på det romantiske kvindebillede, der ligger til grund for den ledsagende sang. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
