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 documentary explores how Andy Warhol's fame is embraced by the Rusyn people in Slovakia, the region his parents emigrated from. The film shows how Warhol is seen there not for his art but for his celebrity status.

What happens
The Warhol nation er en dokumentarfilm fra 1997 instrueret af Jakob Kirstein Høgel efter eget manuskript. Andy Warhols forældre emigrerede til USA i begyndelsen af århundredet fra en afsides rusynsk landsby i Karpaterne i Slovakiet. Selvom Warhol blev født i USA og aldrig besøgte sine forældres hjemstavn, har rusynerne taget ham til sig. Filmen giver et billede af, hvordan Warhol som figur får nye dimensioner i det gamle hjemland - ikke i kraft af sin kunst, men i kraft af sin berømmelse. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
